Fourteen people were injured, including the unidentified 14-year-old who died from her injuries, Deckard said.

Some victims were initially treated at the scene and transported to hospitals, Deckard said. More victims were discovered at other hospitals, NBC affiliate WCBD of Charleston reported.

Deckard said there was no information about a suspect.
