A teenager was killed and six others were wounded in a mass shooting at a Fourth of July block party in Maryland overnight, authorities said Wednesday.
Officers responded to the shooting in Salisbury, near Ocean City, just after midnight, the Wicomico County Sheriff's Office said in a post shared to Facebook on Wednesday morning. They arrived to find seven people had been shot, including a 14-year-old boy who died from his injuries after being transported to a hospital nearby. None of the other shooting victims suffered life-threatening injuries, the sheriff's office said. Authorities have not identified any of the victims.
The sheriff's office has not identified any potential suspects connected to the shooting and described their investigation as "very active." Authorities are asking anyone with information about the incident to contact the office's criminal investigation division.

A single moment captured by an Army photographer became the most enduring image of America's greatest military operation.
