Three people were killed and a fourth person was wounded in a shooting at an oceanfront motel in Myrtle Beach, one of South Carolina's most popular tourist destinations.  A few hours later in Indianapolis, a robbery and shooting left two men injured, authorities said, just 24 hours after an Indiana man was fatally shot in the same parking lot near the Indianapolis motor speedway.  The South Carolina shootings took place around 11pm on Saturday in front of crowds of tourists at the Bermuda Sands Motel along the beach's new boardwalk, Captain David Knipes of Myrtle Beach police said at a news conference.  Officers draped towels over the balcony of a breezeway just outside the doors to the rooms of the motel, to shield two of the bodies from people on nearby Ocean Boulevard. Police have not said whether they have any suspects or what led to the shooting.  "We've got detectives working on it around the clock," Knipes said on Sunday. "We don't have any suspects in custody."  Knipes would not say whether detectives have determined a motive for the shooting, but said it didn't appear to be a random shooting.  The victims were named as Devonte Dantzler, 21, of Summerville; Sandy Gaddis, 22, of Summerville; and Jamie Williams, 28, of Ladson, Horry County deputy coroner Darris Fowler said. The fourth victim has been hospitalised.  The Sun News quoted a witness as saying that several people were fighting on the sidewalk in front of the motel minutes before the shooting.  "At first, everyone was standing around to see who was going to win the fight. Then they started shooting and everyone scattered," a witness, George Covington, told the newspaper.  The shooting happened during the annual Atlantic Beach BikeFest, which is held about 15 miles away over the Memorial Day weekend. Police say they typically deal with motorcycle crashes and lesser offences during the bike rally, but violence is unusual.  Knipes said Myrtle Beach had just two homicides in all of 2013.  In Indianapolis, multiple people approached two men after 2am on Sunday in the Coke Lot, Lieutenant Trent Theobald of Speedway police department said, and one man was beaten and had his personal items stolen. Theobald said the suspects fled and the second man chased them, but was shot.  Theobald said the shooting victim was in serious condition at an Indianapolis hospital, and the robbery victim was in fair condition. He could not provide additional information about the suspects or victims.  The robbery and shooting happened just hours before the start of the Indianapolis 500. The Coke Lot is one of several parking lots near the speedway, where for decades thousands of fans have camped out and partied on race weekend.  A day before, Max Levine, 25, from Kokomo, was shot and killed after an argument early on Saturday morning in the Coke Lot. Avory Johnson, 19, of Indianapolis, is being held without bond in the Marion county jail on a preliminary charge of murder.  Sergeant Brian Olehy of Indiana state police said Saturday that the fatal shooting was unusual. In 2012, a fan received hospital treatment after he was shot in the chest after an apparent altercation near the speedway.
