Search continues for suspects who opened fire at Parker County birthday party
Investigators with the Parker County Sheriff’s Office are seeking help to identify and find suspects involved in a Sunday night shooting at an Aledo home during a birthday party.
More than a dozen people were at the party, including several young children, when the shooting occurred in the 100 block of Meadow Lane.
No one suffered gunshot wounds, but those attending the party found several bullet holes in the exterior walls and inside the home.
After they were called to the scene, sheriff’s deputies located several spent bullet casings in the front yard and roadway in front of the home.
The shooting occurred about 11:30 p.m. Sunday as those at the party reported hearing several “pops”outside. Those in attendance initially believed the sounds were fireworks, said Parker County Sheriff Russ Authier in a news release posted on Monday on the department’s Facebook page.
But they later found the bullet holes in the home, Authier said.
The sheriff said the case remains under investigation.
