Associated Press

SEATTLE – People screamed and ran as eight people were injured in a shooting Saturday at a crowded suburban Seattle parking lot, authorities and witnesses said.

The gunfire broke out at a low-rider car show at La Plaza shopping center on Pacific Highway in Kent, and victims were taken to the hospital, said Kent Fire Department Lt. Pat Pawlak.

Harborview Medical Center spokeswoman Susan Gregg said eight people were admitted to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

“They’re all in satisfactory condition,” she said. “All conscious and talking.”

KOMO News reported no one had been arrested.
