A 22-year-old was shot after a fight broke out at a house party near a university in California, according to police.

San Diego police were called at around 1:30 a.m. on Oct. 22 to a house near San Diego State University on reports of a shooting, according to Fox 5 San Diego.

A fight had broken out among people who arrived at the party, which led to someone pulling a gun and firing three shots, according to CBS 8.
