FRESNO, Calif. — Four men are dead and six others are in the hospital after a shooting at a backyard party in Fresno, California Sunday night.
Police say about three-dozen people, including several children, were watching football at a home in the southeast part of the city.
Witnesses say the shooting started around 6 p.m. when the suspect or suspects sneaked into the yard and opened fire.
All the men who were shot are 25 to 30 years old and those being treated at hospitals are expected to live.
“My heart goes out to the families that are victims of this senseless violence,” Fresno Police Deputy Chief Michael Reid said. “We are going to do everything we can to find out who the perpetrators are and bring them to justice.”
No suspect information or suspect vehicle descriptions are available, Fresno Police Lt. Bill Dooley said at an earlier briefing.
Police are going door to door seeking surveillance footage and witnesses to gain information on the suspect, according to Dooley.
Reid said there was no history of calls for service at the home where the shooting took place.
