Last night, five people were reportedly injured after a shooting occurred during a performance by Chris Brown at Fiesta nightclub in San Jose.
According to reports, the “X” singer was performing his hit single “Loyal” for a packed crowd during the club’s Capricorn Bash, him and his security noticed a fight breaking out on the left side of the stage.
Within seconds, three shots are fired, and hundreds of club-goers dispersed the scene before another three shots were heard being fired off 40 seconds later.
The site reports:
Soon three shots can be heard. A crowd of hundreds disperse and less than a minute later three more shots were fired. San Jose police arrived to the scene to find four people injured. They were transported to a local hospital. A fifth victim walked into a local hospital shortly after.
Details on the condition of the victims, or their identities, were not immediately made available. Reports say there have been several arrests.
Chris’ girlfriend Karrueche Tran was also in attendance of the event, but neither had any affiliation with the shooting nor were amongst those that were injured.
We pray for those that were shot during the event, and hope that incidents like this can be prevented in the future.
