GREENVILLE (AP) - Authorities said someone has been shot to death in the parking lot of a South Carolina daycare.

Greenville County Sheriff's spokesman Lt. Ryan Flood said a fight in the parking lot of La Petit Academy in Greenville led to the shooting about 10 a.m. Monday.

Flood said in a statement the shooting appeared to be isolated and the victim was not picked at random.

La Petit Academy said in a statement all the children were safe and were being kept inside, and the shooting was not related to the daycare.

Greenville County school officials said three nearby schools locked their exterior doors and kept students inside as deputies investigated.
