The Arcadia Lake campground in Edmond is currently cordoned off after a mass shooting at a “Sunday Funday” party last night. Police received multiple calls around 9:00 PM reporting gunfire at a pavilion where a large group of young people had gathered. Witnesses described “multiple men with rifles” opening fire before fleeing into the surrounding woods. While no deaths have been reported, the injury toll is climbing as victims continue to show up at metro hospitals. Edmond Police confirmed that at least 18 people have been hospitalized, with a total of roughly 23 injured. The victims are reportedly between the ages of 16 and 30.
