Two people were shot overnight at a house party in Warner Robins, where eyewitnesses refused to identify the shooter, according to reports.

Detectives were still working the scene at North Houston Road and Willow Avenue, where someone fired several shots into the air and then turned the gun on the crowd, WGXA reported, citing a statement from the Warner Robins Police Department.

A 35-year-old man and his 29-year-old sister were taken to Medical Center Navicent Health with non-life-threatening wounds, WGXA reported.

Police initially responded to a “large gathering” where multiple shots were reported about 12:30 a.m. Tuesday.

But witnesses at the scene refused to provide information about what led to the shooting. They also would not reveal who opened fire.
