One person killed, two others wounded in Fort Worth after-prom party shooting

One of the three people wounded in a Fort Worth after-prom party shooting has died while the other two remain in the hospital.

Reports say the gunfire began early Sunday morning at a party for Arlington Heights High School students held at a home on Singleleaf Lane in far southwest Fort Worth.

Police say the three of the victims who were wounded were taken to the hospital not by ambulance but in private cars, so when police arrived at the home there were no victims. But speaking to other partygoers, officers were able to piece together what happened.

The mother who hosted the party claims hundreds of uninvited guests crashed the party. There was a dice game going on and then there was an argument, followed by gunfire.

One of the victims was first driven to Harris Southwest Hospital and was then transferred by CareFlite to JPS Hospital.

Police say a victim identified as Daniel Moreno was treated overnight but died Sunday afternoon. So far, Fort Worth police have made no arrests.
