I heard the whole thing play out on the police scanner. My company campus is about 1/4 mile away from the park where it happened. We could hear the music from the massive party when we stepped outside.
This sort of thing is no big deal in the cities, but this is a town of 35,000 with maybe one murder a year.
Listening to it happen live on the scanner was interesting. Police recovered a Glock G19 at the scene and read the serial number. Was a Gen 4 based on the first four letters. The ER staff requested officers at the hospital since one of the victims had gang tattoos and they feared opposing gang members would show up to finish the job.
This will likely be the leading news story locally for months.

PULLMAN - Pullman Police are investigating a shooting early Saturday morning in the College Hill area of Pullman that resulted in two individuals being shot — one fatally and the other with life threatening injuries.
Police were called around 12:30 a.m. to the 1200 block of NE Myrtle Street for a report of a loud party with possibly 200 people in attendance. As officers were approaching the scene, they reported hearing multiple gunshots.
Near the area of Williams Drive and Lybecker Road police found two males who had multiple gunshot wounds. Officers began immediate life saving measures on both individuals before Pullman Fire crews arrived and transported both to Pullman Regional Hospital. One died at the hospital and the other was transported by Lifeflight to a Spokane hospital.
At least one of those involved has been confirmed as a WSU student. The names of those involved are not being released pending notification of family members.
Detectives say this is an active investigation and members of the Washington State Patrol Crime Laboratory are expected to be on the scene Saturday morning. Police say it appears that the case is isolated to the individuals involved and do not believe there is active shooter. Police are requesting help from anyone who may have knowledge about the shooting to call police at 509 334-0802.
