Tybee Island prepares for potential violence at upcoming beach event.

Tybee Island police are aware of a social media threat of gun violence targeting this weekend's rumored large gathering at Peach Fest. The police department is taking the message seriously and has shared it with law enforcement partners. Officials are preparing for the event as they did for last weekend's Orange Crush, which caused gridlock in the area. Chatham County Police will have additional staffing for traffic control and emergency response on Highway 80, and drivers should expect delays.
