Authorities said they are investigating a double shooting and an assault that left three people severely injured in Azle Sunday morning.
Parker County Sheriff Larry Fowler said staff at an Azle hospital reported the injuries at 5:42 a.m. Azle police said the shooting happened at a home in the 400 block of Calhoun Bend Road near Farm-to-Market Road 730.
Parker County Sheriff's Criminal Investigation Division said there was a party at the home the night before where more than 50 people were drinking alcohol, including some that were younger than 21.
"At this time, the investigation is active and ongoing," Sgt. Montgomery said. "Due to the severe nature of the offense, we are not identifying the victims or suspects in this case, and no further details about the incident will be released to the public until an arrest has been made."
Sheriff's CID Sgt. Ricky Montgomery said the assault and shooting stemmed from an argument between several people at the party.
Investigators said a 19-year-old male was shot in his left arm and a 17-year-old in his right shoulder. Both teens are in fair but stable condition.
Police said a 24-year-old man was assaulted and is in serious condition after with injuries to his face and head.
