Police disclosed few details about the victims other than that one was the girlfriend of the shooter and another was the person celebrating a birthday.Freddie Marquez, 33, said his mother-in-law was one of the victims and that he was at the party but left around 10:30 p.m. on Saturday.

Police said the identities of the dead would be released at a later date once the coroner officially identified them. Officers at the scene on Sunday told reporters there would be no further information released until Monday.The massacre was the latest in a resurgence of mass shootings in the United States after such occurrences seemed to recede during the height of coronavirus pandemic restrictions.
