Police arrived around 2:37 a.m. and found four people with gunshot wounds. The victims who survived—two women and one man—were taken to hospitals. The man was in critical condition and needed surgery. The women were expected to be stable.

Investigators said the shooting started after a man argued with one of the women he had been dating. He left, came back with a gun and shot four people before running away on foot, police said.

Police said the people inside appeared to be related, but they were still working to determine exactly how. They also had not confirmed which woman had been dating the alleged shooter.

Officers were searching the area for the suspect. Police had not found a gun, and investigators were still examining the scene.
