SAVANNAH — Savannah police are asking for the public's help in locating video of a weekend shooting at the Coastal Empire Fairgrounds that wounded seven people, mostly teenagers.

Savannah-Chatham Metropolitan Police Chief Willie Lovett says there were thousands of people in the area at the time and that many had cellphones that take video. Lovett says detectives "need the public's help to identify the shooter and help get him off the street."

Police say witnesses can either email videos directly to the department at video(at)savannahga.gov or anonymously to CrimeStoppers through the TipSubmit app.

No one was killed in Saturday night's shooting. Witnesses described seeing a gunman wearing a dark jumpsuit.
