A shooting on Sunday night at a party at a lake near Oklahoma City sent least 13 people to hospitals, according to police and hospital officials.

Edmond police spokesperson Emily Ward said authorities received reports of shots being fired at about 9pm at a gathering of young people near Arcadia Lake. She said on late Sunday that no arrests had been made yet.

“This is obviously a very terrifying situation and we understand the concern from the public and those involved and we are working extremely hard to find the suspects,” she said.

“We’re kind of all over the metro speaking with victims and witnesses,” Ward said.

She said that 10 people were taken to hospitals and others drove themselves. She said victims were in “various conditions”.

Police did not immediately respond to an email seeking information early on Monday.
