Shelton police responded to three shootings Saturday night, ultimately finding one person dead, one who was critically injured and another person with shooting-related injuries.
Five people have been taken into custody, according to Shelton police.
The shooting began at 8 p.m. Police were dispatched to East Fir and Otter streets, which are near downtown, where they found two victims: one dead and another critically injured.
About three hours later they were dispatched to another shooting in the 200 block of East B Street, also near downtown, but no injuries were reported at that location.
Then, at around 11:35 p.m., police were dispatched again to a third shooting in the 1000 block of Ellinor Avenue, which overlooks Oakland Bay, where they found a person with shooting-related injuries.
The Mason County Sheriff's Office and Washington State Patrol assisted Shelton police Saturday night.
No other details about the shootings were released Sunday.
