Several people detained for questioning after shots fired during house party

POMPANO BEACH, Fla. – Several people were detained for questioning Friday morning following a shooting in Pompano Beach.

According to Broward Sheriff’s Office spokeswoman Gerdy St. Louis, someone called authorities around 5 a.m. to report a loud party near the 800 block of Northeast 23rd Terrace.

St. Louis said deputies arrived to the area and heard gunshots.

A perimeter was then established and the area was canvased. A shattered back windshield of a car was spotted outside the home.

No injuries were reported, but several people were taken into custody for questioning, St. Louis said.

Neighbors told Local 10 News reporter Saira Anwer that there are parties nearly every day at the home.

“Every night of the week there’s 50, 60 cars outside -- 40 cars -- whatever it is, there’s dancing on the roof, you know, just all kinds of crazy stuff,” one neighbor said.

“It pretty much goes until 4:30 in the morning every day,” another neighbor added.

No other details were immediately known.
