MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Memphis Police say eight people were shot during a block party at Orange Mound Park Saturday evening.

Memphis Police responded to the park on Carnes Avenue near Mound Street at 7:19 p.m.

Police say officers found five victims on the scene. Two were pronounced dead, while three others reportedly went to nearby hospitals in critical condition.

According to police, other victims arrived at local hospitals by private vehicles. Memphis Police say one victim remains in critical condition and one victim has been released from the hospital.

Memphis Police originally reported that 16 people were shot but later stated that there were a total of eight victims. Police believe the error occurred because some victims were reported to investigators several times.

Interim Memphis Police Chief CJ Davis said between 200-300 people were attending a block party at the park. Davis, who was joined by Memphis Mayor Paul Young, said the party was happening without a permit.

Davis says police are working to find the suspects involved. She says police know of at least two suspects who opened fire during the block party.
