When officers arrived, they located a juvenile male victim over 16 years old suffering from apparent gunshot trauma and unresponsive. Officers performed life-saving measures until EMS could respond and transport the victim to an area hospital for treatment. Officers on scene were advised that the juvenile male victim had succumb to his injuries and was subsequently pronounced deceased. Three additional victims, one adult female and two juvenile teens, were located at the scene all suffering from varying gunshot trauma. An additional two victims, one adult female and one juvenile teen, arrived at area hospitals by private conveyance all suffering from gunshot wounds.
