Seven men were wounded in a chaotic East Oakland shooting that continued even after officers scrambled to the scene late Saturday, police said.

The violent clash prompted multiple police officers to move door to door through the neighborhood in search of possible suspects, said Officer Johnna Watson, an Oakland police spokeswoman.

Police did not say if any suspects were identified or arrested. No officers were wounded.

Patrol officers were first alerted by a bystander around 11:45 p.m. Saturday about gunfire at 77th and Bancroft avenues, police said.

When officers arrived at the scene, gunfire continued to erupt and multiple people were injured with gunshot wounds, Watson said.

Several other victims showed up at the hospital on their own, police said. The condition of the seven victims — who range in age from 27 to 45 — was not immediately released. One person was treated and released, while the others remain hospitalized, police said.

Police did not elaborate on the circumstances of the shooting.
