HOUSTON — Sixteen people were shot and at least one was killed Sunday during a large party at a home in Houston.

An 18-year-old man was pronounced dead at the hospital, and the injured ranged in age from 16 to 40, the Houston Police Department said in a statement Sunday evening. No suspect is currently in custody, though several people were detained, questioned and then released.

The department began receiving calls reporting shots fired around 12:50 a.m. at a home in southeast Houston, Assistant Police Chief Patricia Cantu said during a news briefing earlier Sunday.

Officers reported hearing gunshots when they arrived minutes later, Cantu said. They saw multiple people wounded in the area outside the home.

Cantu said a family party was taking place and an uninvited guest was asked to leave the home. That person is believed to have started shooting, she said, which prompted others to draw guns and return fire.

The Houston Fire Department responded and began treating victims in the parking lot of a nearby restaurant.
