VICTORVILLE, Calif. (VVNG.com) — A 20-year-old woman was shot twice in her legs while attending a house party advertised on Instagram, officials said.

On Sunday, August 14, 2022, at approximately 12:34 a.m., an unidentified person called Sheriff’s Dispatch stating someone had been shot at 12424 Orion Street in Victorville. 

Sheriff’s spokeswoman Tricia Blake told VVNG the caller disconnected before providing any further information and was unreachable on callback. 

A second caller reported a party at the Orion address and heard multiple gunshots followed by vehicles speeding away from the location.

While in the backyard of the residence, the female victim was shot twice in her legs. She received medical attention on-scene before being transported to a hospital for further care.
