Three people were killed and five wounded Saturday night in Southport, N.C., when a gunman attacked an open-air dock-front bar from a boat. The shooter motored his boat up alongside the American Fish Company, a bar and live-music venue, and opened fire. Nigel Edge was arrested on charges including first-degree murder; officials describe the attack as premeditated. About 30 minutes after the shooting, the Coast Guard observed an individual matching the shooter's description loading a boat at a public ramp. Authorities say the suspect acted alone, there is no ongoing safety threat, and several victims were visitors on vacation. One wounded victim was described as clinging for their life.
