Four people were killed and 10 others were hospitalized with injuries following a shooting at a California banquet hall where a family was hosting a celebration Saturday night, authorities said.<\/p>\n

Gunfire erupted shortly before 6 p.m. at the location on the 1900 block of Lucile Avenue in the city of Stockton, San Joaquin County Sheriff’s spokesperson Heather Brent said at the scene.<\/p>\n

Brent characterized the event as a family celebration. Jason Lee, vice mayor of Stockton, said in a statement<\/a> that the violence erupted at a children’s birthday party.<\/p>\n

Brent said the victims included children and adults. <\/p>\n

“It’s unfathomable that there were young children that were harmed,” she said.<\/p>\n

The exact conditions, ages and genders of the victims were unavailable, and sheriff’s investigators were working on identifying the gunman, the sheriff’s spokesperson said.<\/p>\n

“This may be a targeted incident,” Brent said. “Our No. 1 priority right now is identifying the suspect in this incident.”<\/p>\n

It was unclear whether the gunfire originated inside or outside the banquet hall, she said. The FBI, Stockon police and other law enforcement agencies were assisting with the investigation, Brent said.<\/p>\n

The office of California Gov. Gavin Newsom said on X that he\u2019s been briefed<\/a> on the \u201chorrific shooting\u201d and that the Governor\u2019s Office of Emergency Services is coordinating with law enforcement as it monitors the situation.<\/p>\n
