    Authorities in South Carolina are investigating a shooting at a nightclub early Sunday that wounded at least nine people. It was the second mass shooting in the state and the third in the nation during the Easter holiday weekend. In Pittsburgh, two minors were killed and at least eight people when shots were fired during a party at a short-term rental property.

    [These] two shootings come just a day after gunfire erupted at a busy mall in the South Carolina state capital of Columbia. Nine people were shot and five other people sustained injuries while trying to flee the scene. The victims ranged in age from 15 to 73. None faced life-threatening injuries.

    The three Easter weekend mass shootings are in addition to other shootings in recent days. Last week, a gunman opened fire in a New York subway car, injuring 10 people. Earlier this month, police said six people were killed and 12 others wounded in Sacramento, California, during a gunfight between rival gangs as bars closed in a busy downtown area.
