AUSTIN (KXAN) — Multiple people were injured following an overnight shooting Sunday in downtown Austin.
First responders said that the incident occurred at approximately 1 a.m. near the intersection of Sixth and Brazos Streets.
Austin Police Department officers responded to a high-priority call, according to an APD public information officer. Those officers found a gunshot victim, who had gotten into a pedicab, near Eighth Street and Brazos Street.
“The first officer on scene applied pressure to the wound, and within a minute, the rescue task force was there to apply a chest seal and then pressure to the entrance wound,” said an APD PIO during a briefing just before 3 a.m. Saturday. “That's when we got multiple more calls saying that there were more victims inside a club on Sixth Street.”
APD said that responders found three additional victims while officers secured the crime scene.
According to Austin-Travis County EMS, two victims received life-saving treatment and were taken to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. The two other victims declined medical assistance at the scene.
