A shooting early Sunday morning in an event venue in the Buckman neighborhood sent at least five people to the hospital, according to the Portland Police Bureau. All had non-life threatening injuries.

In a news release Sunday, police said that officials responded to a report of shooting at an “'all ages’ type party" in a “warehouse type” building at 226 SE Madison St. at 12:41 a.m. Two victims were found at the scene and taken by ambulance to a hospital. Three were also taken to the hospital in private vehicles.

Portland police said in a news release that there was an argument between at least two people immediately before the shooting, and that when officers arrived, they described a chaotic scene, with people leaving on foot and in vehicles. Officers also said they think several potential witnesses left without giving statements to police.

Southeast Madison Street between Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard and Second Avenue and Southeast Second Avenue between Hawthorne Boulevard and Main Street were closed while the Gun Violence Reduction Team interviewed victims and witnesses and gathered evidence, officials said. That area has since reopened.

Police asked anyone with information about gun crimes in Portland to speak with Portland Police Bureau’s Tactical Operations Division at 503-823-4106 or GunTaskForce@portlandoregon.gov.
