Detectives not talking about a potential motive for Tuesday night shootings. All three victims are expected to recover.

Detectives are trying to figure out what led to a shooting spree in Ventura County which left three people wounded.

Oxnard Police were called to Southwinds Park at around 7 Tuesday night by reports of a shooting.

They found a 19-year-old man with a gunshot wound to the leg. He told them there was another person who had been shot nearby. Officers started a search and found two 15-year-olds in an alley who each had multiple gunshot wounds.

All three victims were taken to a hospital for treatment. None of the wounds were life threatening. Detectives say they’ve recovered some evidence from the scene, but they aren’t talking about a possible motive for the attack.
