Tragic reports are arriving from Virginia Beach Oceanfront after chaos erupted on Saturday night at the popular oceanfront as reports of a mass shooting triggered a huge police response with several helicopters circling overhead and streets getting blocked off by squad cars, fire trucks, and officers.

Several victims were reported with gunshot wounds, but the exact numbers and conditions remain unclear as the investigation is still active.

Virginia Beach's oceanfront, which is known to be a family-friendly location, continues to descend into mayhem while soft-on-crime policies leave law-abiding citizens and tourists paying this heavy price.
