The people injured were in their 20s and attending a pop-up that each Friday works to help people by providing food and services, Diaz said at a news conference at about 10:30 p.m.

One man was in critical condition at Harborview Medical Center, while two other men and a woman were being treated at the hospital for injuries that were not considered life-threatening, according to a hospital spokesperson. The fifth victim was treated at the shooting scene, Diaz said.
