Nine people have been injured after gunfire erupted at a teenagers’ party in Jasper County, Texas.
The shooting early yesterday took place at a private residence where some 250 Jasper High School students had gathered after their annual prom dance.
The victims, who have not been publicly named, ranged in age from 15 to 19.
All are recovering from their wounds at two local hospitals, Jasper County Chief Sheriff Mitchel Newman said last evening.
He said investigators were speaking to students who attended the party, including several persons of interest, but no motive for the incident had yet been identified. END.
