A 14-year-old girl is dead and a 15-year-old boy is in stable but critical condition following a shooting outside of a house party in Buffalo Saturday night.
Four other teenagers were also shot but have all been released from medical care.
According to ABC News, the shooting happened in Buffalo’s East Side neighborhood where “several hundred” teenagers gathered for a party. On his weekly radio show, Mayor Byron Brown said all of the victims are between the ages of 14 and 16 and no arrests have been made.
Police are investigating whether multiple shooters were involved after detectives learned there were at least three handguns brought to the house party. Law enforcement added the shooting was preceded by a series of calls from area residents, including noise complaints and reports of a large group of teenagers fighting in the area. Police responded to the earlier calls to disperse a “large chaotic scene.”
