Seven people were wounded in a shooting that broke out Sunday night at a college homecoming event in southeastern Texas, authorities said.
The shooting happened during a "trail ride pasture party" that was held together with another party celebrating homecoming at Prairie View A&M University, the Waller County Sheriff's Office wrote in a Facebook post on Monday morning. The two parties drew a massive crowd to a field near the university campus, which is about 50 miles outside of Houston.
Responding Waller County deputies arrived at the scene just after 10 p.m. local time on Sunday night and found seven people who had sustained gunshot wounds to their lower extremities. Four of the people shot are adult women, two are adult men, and one is a juvenile male. None of the injuries are considered life-threatening.
