Two minors were killed early Sunday after shots were fired at a large party hosted at an Airbnb rental in Pittsburgh, according to the city’s police blotter. At least eight others were being treated for gunshot wounds and other injuries.

Police said they were called around 12:30 a.m. to a house party that had as many as 200 people in attendance, several of them underage.

“As many as 50 rounds were fired inside, prompting some party-goers to jump out the windows, sustaining injuries such as broken bones and lacerations. Several more shots were fired outside the home,” the police said in the blotter. Many young people fled the area on foot and in vehicles.
