Deputies say three adults and five juveniles were detained. One rifle and three handguns were found on scene and confiscated.

19-year-old Keyantae Tireque Blash, 18-year-old Dorian Markel Rumph and 20-year-old Zyikee Mylakhi Stroud were arrested. The juveniles were released to their parents as the investigation continues.
