Police are investigating a shooting in southern Dallas where five people were injured Friday night.

DPD responded to a call in the 200 block of Stoneport Dr. at about 8:50 p.m, Riverstation Apartments.

“I heard a bunch of shots and it seemed like it was real close," said Mr. Wallace, a neighbor who didn't want to reveal his first name out of safety concerns.

According to police, three adults and two minors were shot in the parking lot. All victims were transported to a nearby hospital and are in stable condition.

NBC 5 spoke with one man, Grady, who said one of the victims was his daughter.

“I’m headed to Baylor because my daughter has been shot in the foot," he said. “I got two grandkids. This is dangerous. These apartments are dangerous. They’ve got to do something about this.”

Police say the suspects left the scene in an unknown vehicle.

“It’s just real sad that we have this type of, type of violence, you know what I’m saying? In our community. It’s just really bad," Wallace said. "It’s just really sad that our young kids, kids can’t even come outside and play. Kids can’t even do anything."

At this time, the motive is unknown but police say there is no threat to the public.

This investigation is ongoing.
