Authorities have not confirmed the number of shooters.

Initially, the street was closed off for investigation but reopened Saturday morning, nearly eight hours following the shooting. Nearby houses and vehicles were also hit by gunfire, with deputies finding several shell casings.

The Pierce County Sheriff’s Office is expected to provide further updates as more information becomes available.

“This is another grim reminder of how dangerous parties can be when things get out of hand. Our deputies and first responders have dealt with a lot in the last 24 hours, and we would hate to respond to more unnecessary deaths. Please be safe,” the department said.
