The Elk Grove police reported that two men suffered gunshot wounds and another was beaten after a birthday party turned violent early Sunday morning. All three were transported to area hospitals for treatment.
Elk Grove police Sgt. James Fuller said at about 1:39 a.m. Sunday, officers responded to a call of multiple gunshots in the 9900 block of West Taron Drive. Dispatchers then received a call of a man suffering from two gunshot wounds at the AM/PM gas station at 9590 Harbour Point Drive.
At about the same time, Fuller reported, other Elk Grove officers stopped a suspected vehicle seen speeding away from the area of West Taron Drive. Inside that vehicle was another person who had been shot. He was taken to Kaiser South for treatment. A third person - who was beaten at the party - was also transported separately to Kaiser South in Sacramento.
Fuller said preliminary investigations have revealed what appears to be a gang-related dispute at the party. Fuller added that several people tried to enter the party and were denied entrance. The situation developed into a verbal argument before the shooting erupted. The incident is still under investigation.
A more detailed story on this incident will be in the Wednesday edition of the Citizen.
