The hunt for a gunman began Sunday night after two people were killed and five others were wounded after a shooting at a San Antonio club during a concert, Texas authorities said.
Police said they called officers shortly after 8 p.m. Sunday to the Ventura, a music venue situated along the River Walk portion of the San Antonio Museum Reach.
An argument broke out inside the club and one person pulled a gun out and started shooting, William McManus, chief of San Antonio Police said. One victim died on the scene, and another six were taken to a hospital where, soon after arrival, one was declared dead.
The victims have not been identified. McManus said the victim who died at the club was a 21-year-old man. He said preliminary information indicated the people shot were all “patrons," not staff.
McManus said he is confident that a suspect will be soon identified and apprehended. No further information was immediately available.
A since-deleted Facebook event indicated Sunday night's concert at the Ventura was "Living the DREAM," a showcase featuring multiple performers. Advertisements for the concert were also posted to websites advertising local events and listed performers' social media pages. An email to the apparent promoters wasn't immediately returned.
