On Thursday, gunfire broke out at the Golden Gardens Park in Seattle, Washington. The incident left one man dead and three others injured.

One person was killed and three others were wounded Thursday in a shooting in Seattle’s Ballard neighborhood, police said.

Seattle police initially said the four people were shot Thursday afternoon in two separate places but later clarified that they all were shot in Golden Gardens Park, KING-TV reported.

Police minutes later found a 50-year-old woman and a 38-year-old man about 2 miles away with gunshot wounds and they later determined the pair had fled the park, police and fire officials said. Both were taken to Harborview for treatment and were in stable condition, officials said.

Seattle Police Captain Lori Aagard told KOMO-TV that as of Thursday afternoon, police had limited information.

"What we do know is that there are two separate scenes," Aagard said. "It’s originating from one incident. It was not two incidents. It originated here (Golden Gardens Park) and was possibly centered around a stolen car."

Aagard also said she believes everyone involved in the shooting had been accounted for.
