Three of the individuals shot were women, the outlet cited Assistant Chief Steve Dolunt as saying.
"I think one individual was the target, the others just happened to be at this party," he added.
Children were also reportedly present at the party. Dolunt noted that it was a “miracle” none of them were injured.
