Shooting at USA birthday party leaves 4 dead

Four people were killed and three others were injured in an early Saturday shooting during a birthday party at a home in northern Kentucky of the United States.

The Florence Police Department says that the victims were attending a 21st birthday party when shots rang out.

Around 2:50 a.m., officers were dispatched a Florence residence, about 11 miles south of Cincinnati, Ohio, after reports were made that shots were fired at a residence in Florence. Upon arrival, officers located multiple victims, and people who were attending the party said that the suspect had fled the scene but that they had a vehicle description, Chief Jeff Mallery said in the press conference.

A police officer and a deputy from the Boone County Sheriff’s Office located the vehicle and attempted to stop it, but the suspect fled. The suspect, Chase Garvey, 21, then shot himself and crashed the vehicle. He later died from his injuries after being transported to a local area hospital, police said.
