Chula Visfa Police say two teens were shot and killed at a Friday night Halloween party and they are asking for the public's help.
Here is news release issued by the Chula Vista Police Department early Saturday afternoon:
On Friday, October 31st, at approximately 11:17 PM, officers from the Chula Vista Police Department responded to investigate a report of shooting on East Prospect St in Chula Vista.
When officers arrived in the area, they discovered two victims suffering from gunshot wounds. Officers administered life-saving measures until both victims were transported to UCSD Medical Center. Unfortunately, despite resuscitation efforts, they were both pronounced deceased at the hospital. The victims were later identified as 15 and 17-year-old juveniles. Their identities are being withheld until proper notification of family members is made.
The investigation is still on-going but has been able to determine the victims were attending a Halloween party, when an argument occurred, which led to shots being fired. The Chula Vista Police Department is currently trying to locate witnesses and potential suspect(s) to this incident.
Investigators also believe there is a likelihood witnesses would have used their cell phones to record the fight.
CVPD is asking anyone with information, video of the incident or working exterior cameras around the 00 block of E. Prospect St to contact the Chula Vista Police Department at (619) 691-5075 or the Crime Stoppers anonymous tip line at (888) 580-8477.
