Police are searching for three suspects who allegedly pulled up to a house party in King City, Calif., and opened fire Sunday night, killing at least four people and wounding three others.
King City Police Chief James Hunt said three men died at the scene and a woman who was shot was taken to a hospital where she was pronounced dead.
The other three people injured in the shooting were taken to a hospital for treatment, but their symptoms have not improved.
This weekend, a California house party joins a troubling list of normal gatherings disrupted by gun violence in the United States.
- One woman was killed and 12 others injured when gunshots rang out at a nightclub packed with hundreds of attendees in Mississippi.
- A Georgia teenager was shot and killed by police after officers tried to remove a group of 500 to 600 people who were causing a disturbance at the Six Flags Over Georgia theme park. .
- Two people, including a child, were shot and killed when gunfire erupted outside a high school basketball game in Missouri, in an area still reeling from a mass shooting during a Super Bowl celebration.
It joins a list of at least 68 mass shootings in the country so far this year, according to the Gun Violence Archive. The archive, like CNN, defines a mass shooting as an incident in which at least four people, not including the gunman, are shot and killed.
Police said the shooting occurred when a car stopped at a home in King City, about 60 miles southeast of Monterey.
Police said three masked men got out of their car and began firing shots at partygoers in the front yard, before getting back in their cars and fleeing the scene.
Police are searching for three suspects who were wearing dark clothing and masks.
