Counseling to be provided after shooting during back-to-school event at Titusville park

The Brevard County Parks Department is making plans to provide counseling services to families who witnessed a shooting at a Titusville park last weekend.
Resident Stepanie Fayson said her daughter was at Issac Campbell Park Saturday performing at an anti-violence event called “Peace in the City” with her dance team.
"She heard the gunshot and she was running, and she said everybody was running over each other,” Fayson said.
Dwight Harvey, who is the father of the event's organizer, was streaming the event live on his Facebook page when the shooting occurred. 
No one other than the hospitalized gunman was injured.

But many parents worry their children might have been affected by the incident.
"The dance coordinator, she told us to talk to the girls, because some of them were saying they were still hearing the gunshots," Fayson said.
Detectives said they do not expect to file charges against the bystander since his actions were within the law, according to the preliminary investigation, police said. 
The names of those involved have not been released.
