Police are on the hunt for multiple suspects involved in at least 10 shootings in Austin, Texas, over the weekend.
At least four people have been shot, Austin Police Chief Lisa Davis said Sunday. One of the victims sustained a “serious injury,” while the other three have minor injuries.
The shootings, which took place late Saturday and Sunday, appear to be “random“ with “no specific motive,” according to Davis. She described the suspects as two males in their late teens.
Officials issued a shelter-in-place order for the areas of “South Slaughter Ln, East McKinney Falls Pkwy, North Ben White Blvd., and West Escarpment Blvd,” the Austin Police Department said Sunday afternoon.
Davis said the suspects have used several different cars, including a black or dark blue Hyundai, a gold Hyundai sedan, a silver Mazda four-door and a white Kia Optima.
“I want to remind people, do not leave their cars unlocked. What we are seeing are these cars are being stolen. Do not leave your keys in the vehicle or your key fobs in the vehicle,” she said.
