RIVERSIDE, CALIF. —
Seven people were shot and wounded early Monday during a Halloween party at a Southern California nightclub, police said.

The shooting was reported at a nightclub called Sevilla in the city of Riverside that had promoted a weekend of Halloween-themed events, including a Sunday night rap show billed as "The First Purge" or "The Purge Election Year."

Two victims found by officers inside the nightclub were taken to a hospital for treatment. Five other victims later arrived at local hospitals with gunshot wounds, police said.

Police watch commander Sgt. Ryan Wilson said none of the victims' wounds were life-threatening.

One witness who did not want to be identified told KTLA-TV that he was dancing when gunshots rang out.

He said he saw multiple people firing guns and that there was a bottleneck of people trying to get out of the exit as he hid behind the bar and prayed.

The initial police investigation shows that a fight broke out at the club and those involved began exchanging gunfire both inside and outside, said Officer Ryan Railsback, a department spokesman.

Investigators are looking into whether the shooting was gang-related, Railsback said.

The investigation was being handled by the department's robbery-homicide and gang intelligence units.

Riverside is about 55 miles (88.5 kilometers) inland from Los Angeles.



At least no one died. But still, WTF is wrong with people!  

Sounds like Gang violence to me.

They probably watched my videos on YouTube.

This title is misleading; it isn't Halloween yet.

Spookiest thing I heard all Halloween, if true. Soon, very soon, as it was prophesied in the Danny Phantom fanfic, transgender amazonian ghost girls may soon take over the planet and kill us all. Are you guys prepared?

Thankfully it seems this didn't happen, at least not this Halloween. BUT there's always next year.

There's always the original date Randy planned on, 5/7/19. I genuinely fear one of his deranged fans will do something stupid on that date.

Or April 20 2019. I expect a mass Shooting on that date in the USA.

Sadly I do as well. Maybe several. Maybe even at Columbine.

Yeah the fact that it’s the 20th anniversary is pretty terrifying to me as well.

I think schools are on high alert anyway during that time. The 20th is on a Saturday this year.

Pretty much the anniversary of Columbine will ALWAYS put schools on a heightened alert. But it seems like only certain milestone anniversary dates really make people nervous. Like the 1st/5th/10th/20th etc.
