Chico police are investigating a mass shooting in which a 17-year-old girl was killed during the community’s third violent incident early Saturday.
Six people were shot at a party on the 1000 block of Columbus Avenue just off the campus of California State University Chico, police said. Officers responded to the shooting at 3:26 a.m., about 30 minutes after responding to an altercation at the same address in which they arrested one suspect for brandishing a firearm, police said.
The 17-year-old girl was taken to a hospital, where she died. The survivors are a 17-year-old girl and men ages 19 and 21, all hospitalized with non-life-threatening injuries, and men ages 18 and 20 treated at a hospital and released, said police, who did not identify the victims.
