A birthday party for a 12-year-old turned into a blood bath when feuding attendees opened fire.

According to Louisiana police, at least nine teens were injured in the crossfire and two remain in hospital. Among the 60 teens in attendance were two groups of feuding male juveniles who were embroiled in a heated argument and subsequently pulled guns and opened fire.

Officers were called to the scene at 20:37 on Saturday night where they confirmed that two guns had been fired.

Those injured was “a 17-year-old male shot in the arm; a 16-year-old male grazed in the ribs; a 15-year-old male with a graze wound to the ankle; a 15-year-old male shot in the foot; a 14-year-old male shot in the leg; a 13-year-old male shot in the leg; and a 12-year-old shot in both legs,” read the statement.

A 16-year-old male shot in the stomach and a 14-year-old male with a gunshot wound to the head remain in the hospital.

Witnesses have failed to come forward to shed light on the incident proving to be a frustrating investigation for police officials.

Sheriff Mike Tregre said no one has come forward with information.

“Not one person has given a formal statement. I am asking witnesses to come forward with information to help us learn more about what happened.”

There has allegedly been tip-offs and anonymous calls from various attendees but a formal statement has yet to be made.
