Chaos erupted in a Dallas apartment parking lot Friday night, leaving three adults and two children wounded by gunfire. The Dallas Police Department responded to reports of the shooting just before 9 p.m. in the 200 block of Stoneport Drive, according to FOX 4 News. Officers arrived to find the victims, including the minors and promptly transported them to a hospital where they were reported to be in stable condition.
The search for the suspects, who reportedly opened fire before fleeing, is ongoing, with authorities yet to pinpoint a motive behind the violent outburst. An update from the police suggested that this was an isolated affair with no lingering threat posed to the wider public. As of now, the suspects remain at large, and the vehicle used in their escape is unknown, as stated by The Dallas Morning News.
With detectives hard at work piecing together the events that led up to the shooting, the community is left grappling with the reality of violence that has struck disturbingly close to home. Police have not released further details regarding the identities of those wounded or what may have precipitated the gunfire.
