NEWBERRY, S.C.—Four teenagers were shot dead within hours of each other in a small South Carolina city over the weekend, prompting the area high school to switch to virtual learning while officers stepped up patrols, authorities said.

No arrests have been made in the shooting early Sunday in Newberry that killed a 16-year-old and in the deaths of three teens in a shooting that afternoon about two blocks away in the city of 10,200 people, Newberry Police Chief Chief Kevin Goodman said.
