MANSFIELD, Ohio — Two teenagers are dead and four others are injured after a shooting at a party in Mansfield Friday night, according to the Mansfield Department of Police.
Officers were called to the 800 block of Ferndale Road just after 11:30 p.m. on reports of shots fired and people running from the area. When officers arrived, they found four people suffering from gunshot wounds.
Two victims were taken to nearby hospitals, while the other two were pronounced dead on the scene. Police were later informed by the local hospital that an additional gunshot wound victim had been brought to the ER in a personal vehicle.
During their interviews, investigators determined another person had been shot. The victims ranged in age from 14 to 19 years old.
