Witnesses said dozens of gunshots were fired into a crowd of people attending a party in Willowbrook. Police have not identified a suspect.
One person was fatally shot and at least 22 others were injured in gunfire that broke out in Illinois early on Sunday morning, authorities said.
The mass shooting happened at around 12:30 a.m. in Willowbrook, a suburban village about 20 miles west of Chicago, where a large crowd of young people had gathered for a party in a parking lot near Route 83, a major state highway. Police patrolling the area were called away around that time to respond to another report alleging a fight had happened nearby. They returned to the gathering after hearing gunshots, the DuPage County Sheriff’s Office said in a news release.
