Tennessee, June 6<\/strong> — At least three people were killed and more than a dozen injured early Sunday in a Tennessee city after gunfire erupted and fleeing vehicles struck bystanders, police said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The bloody incident came barely two hours after a separate mass shooting in Philadelphia left three dead and 11 wounded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAt this time we can confirm 14 gunshot victims and three victims that were struck by vehicles that were attempting to flee the scene,\u201d<\/em> Chattanooga police chief Celeste Murphy told reporters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThree fatalities have been confirmed, two of which are related to gunshot wounds and one of which is related to injuries sustained after being struck by a vehicle.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

She said the wounded included at least one juvenile, and that several victims remained in critical condition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Murphy said there was \u201cdefinitely more than one shooter\u201d<\/em> involved in the incident near Mary\u2019s Bar and Grill in a downtown section of Chattanooga, a city of 180,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As of midday Sunday, no one was in custody.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis is a very complex situation,\u201d<\/em> Murphy said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chattanooga\u2019s latest eruption of violence came just a week after six people were wounded in another shooting in the city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The US is plagued with gun violence, and mass shootings in recent weeks including tragedies at an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas and a grocery store in Buffalo, New York have left dozens of people dead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
