Four people were injured in a shooting in a club in downtown Austin, Texas, according to police and emergency medical officials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Austin Police Department Cpl. Matthew Nonweiler said officers responded to reports of gunfire just after 1 a.m. on Sunday near the intersection of Sixth Street and Brazos Street. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
A 911 caller initially reported that a shooting victim had entered a pedicab and was traveling northbound. Officers located the pedicab at Eighth and Brazos, where they rendered first aid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOne of the first officers on scene applied pressure to the wound, and within a minute the rescue task force was there to apply a chest seal and additional pressure,\u201d Nonweiler said during a joint press briefing with Austin-Travis County EMS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Capt. Koesterer with EMS said a second gunshot victim was located around the same time in a separate area nearby. Both were transported to local trauma centers with non-life threatening injuries. Two additional people who were also shot at the scene declined medical transport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Police said that additional reports inside a club on Sixth Street were received. The shooting prompted a large police response at the Lit Lounge club, according to witness footage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The suspect remains at large, and authorities are urging anyone with information to contact the Austin Police Department tip line. A motive for the shooting has not yet been determined.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
