Police officers arrived within 2.5 minutes to a hectic scene of people who had been shot near the walkway/back entrance to Wow Hall, with a loud and frantic crowd.

The officers quickly provided medical aid to victims, including applying tourniquets and pressure to wounds, mitigating any potential threats, and coordinating with arriving Eugene Springfield Fire Medic units for a safe response to further treat the injured victims.

The response included 25 Eugene Police Patrol Units plus multiple detective units, with the first arrival.

The Eugene Police Department expressed gratitude to the Lane County Sheriff’s Office, the Oregon State Police, the Springfield Police, and the University of Oregon Police Department, who provided an additional quick response.

Eugene Springfield Fire responded with five medics, four paramedic engine companies, and four chief officers.

Eugene Police Forensic Evidence Unit responded as well. Central Lane 911 received at least 30 emergency calls.

One victim remains in critical condition, and the remaining five are stable.

All of the victims with the exception of one are from out of town and appear to have traveled here for the concert. Two are female and four are male.

Five patients were transported last night to a local hospital and one patient self-transported as a walk-in to a hospital.
