At least nine people were shot at in San Francisco's Mission District area in what authorities have termed as a "targeted and isolated incident".
Addressing a news conference early on Saturday, San Francisco Police Department Officer Eve Laokwansathitaya said that the victims are expected to survive the Friday night shooting, which took place while "some sort of block party" was underway.
At least five of the victims were hospitalised, according to Santiago Lerma, a legislative aide to a San Francisco Board of Supervisors member.
One of the five wounded is undergoing surgery, while four people were treated for minor injuries, Lerma told media.
