3 dead in shooting at Florida Narcotics Anonymous meeting

EDGEWATER, Fla. – Three people are dead following a shooting and hostage situation at a Narcotics Anonymous meeting in Florida, police said.

Officers responded to a report that a man was shot and a woman was being held hostage Monday night in Edgewater, which is near Daytona Beach.

The other people at the meeting were able to escape the offices of Be The Bridge, a nonprofit organization that helps the homeless and others get a fresh start in life.

Edgewater police said in a Facebook post that investigators believe it appeared to involve a domestic dispute.

Officers sought to make contact with the suspect to negotiate before a SWAT team breached the building and found the gunman and the two others dead inside, the post said.

No additional details were immediately available.
