WATCH: Would Be Mass Shooter In South Carolina Shot Dead

A woman in South Carolina fatally shot a man who began firing a rifle into a crowd of people. Authorities said the crowd was a graduation party. 37-year-old Dennis Butler was killed Wednesday night after he pulled out the rifle and began shooting at people attending the birthday-graduation party outside an apartment complex in the city of Charleston, police said in their statement.

A woman who was attending the party, drew a pistol and fired, killing Butler. No one at the party was injured. Butler was asked to leave because children were playing, and he was driving too quickly, police said. He originally left, but returned later. He parked in front of the complex and began firing. The department has said no charges will be filed against the woman.
