Police in Tennessee say eight people were shot including two men who were killed at an unsanctioned public party in a Memphis city park. The Memphis Police Department initially reported there were 16 people shot but revised the number. Chief Cerelyn Davis says officers responded at 7:19 p.m. Saturday to a reported shooting in Orange Mound Park. Two men were pronounced dead at the scene. The shooting occurred at a block party, which Davis says included an estimated 200 to 300 attendees but did not appear to have been issued a city permit. There were no immediate arrests reported.
