Forth Worth Police Department released a statement, confirming the suspect was chased out of the party and "struck multiple times with at least one landscaping brick."
"On July 26 officers responded to a shooting call in the 5600 block of Shiloh Drive. Officers located multiple victims with gunshot wounds and serious injuries.
"Two victims were pronounced dead at the scene, and three suspects were transported to area hospitals for medical treatment."
Authorities said a small gathering was taking place in the backyard of a residence "when one of the attendees became upset and left the gathering."
"The attendee returned with another person, went to the backyard, and became involved in a verbal altercation with multiple people. The attendee shot at least one person, causing a non-life threatening injury."
According to investigators, the other attendees of the party then gave chase to the shooter. The shooter turned and fired at other people; a group picked up concrete landscaping bricks and started "throwing them" at the shooter.
"At some point, the shooter was caught by the group and either fell or was taken down to the ground. The shooter continued to shoot at the group, striking at least two additional victims.
"A victim was pronounced dead at the scene and another victim was transported to an area hospital with a non-life threatening gunshot injury. The shooter was struck multiple times with at least one landscaping brick and was pronounced dead at the scene."
A handgun believed to be the one used by the shooter was recovered by crime scene personnel.
"Homicide detectives are continuing to interview all involved attendees," the statement read. "The positive identification, cause and manner of death will be determined by the Tarrant County Medical Examiner’s Office for the deceased; the identities of the injured will not be released at this time."
