The incident occurred on Wednesday evening at approximately 7:30 p.m. when the Fort Worth Police Department received a call and responded to a reported shooting at an apartment complex in the 3000 block of Las Vegas Trail in the western part of the city, according to a statement from the Forth Worth Police Department early Thursday morning.
“When they arrived at approximately 7:38 p.m., officers located several victims with gunshot wounds outside in the parking lot,” police said. “A total of six victims ranging in age from three to 19-years-old received injuries ranging from minor to severe.”
Officers immediately assisted in providing medical attention with the help of the Fort Worth Fire Department and MedStar, authorities said.
Five of the victims were taken to local area hospitals while one refused treatment for their injury. The conditions of the five who were taken in for medical care are currently unknown.
