Tempe Police say 13 people were wounded following
a shooting outside a night club.
Sgt. Steve Carbajal said at least two of the
injured are in serious condition, while the others
were treated at hospitals for more minor wounds.
Initial reports said seven were shot, but as more
victims drove themselves to the hospital the
number grew.
Police are not sure what prompted the shooting,
but they are searching for two young black men
seen fleeing the club on foot.
The shots were fired outside the Clubhouse Music
Venue on Broadway Road, which is a few blocks
southeast of the Arizona State University Tempe
campus.
Sgt. Carbajal said the shooting came during "some
sort of altercation" at the club, where a rap
music concert was going on. Rapper Nipsey Hussle
was set to perform.
Witnesses describe the scene as "chaotic."
"People stampeded over security. Not what I
expected to be doing on a Friday night -- dodging
bullets," said Paul Butler, who witnessed the
shooting.
Butler and other witnesses say a large crowd was
waiting outside the club for the doors to open
when gunfire broke out.
Neither witnesses nor police are sure of a motive.
