Three people were killed and another three wounded when gunfire erupted at a Halloween party in suburban Denver early Friday — with police hunting for multiple suspects.
Authorities were dispatched on reports of shots fired at a house party attended by about 25 people in Northglenn just after midnight, the Northglenn Police Department said.
One person was found dead at the scene, and five others were transported to nearby hospitals with gunshot wounds.
Two of those others wounded later died at the hospital. None had been publicly identified as of early Friday afternoon, pending family notifications, police said.
Neighbors saw several victims on the ground soon after the shooting, which is thought to have been among partygoers rather than a drive-by, KDVR reported, citing police.
As of late Friday morning, police were still seeking multiple suspects, suggesting it was a shootout.
