ANDERSON, S.C. — Authorities in South Carolina say a 3-year-old girl was shot during a dispute over fireworks.

It's unclear to which group the shooter belonged.
The child's injuries are believed to be not life-threatening.
Authorities are searching for two white men in their late teens or early 20s. Authorities had set up a perimeter and brought in a scent-tracking dog.
