(Update)  Two additional gunshot victims arrived at Providence Hospital in Everett having been injured in the University district shooting.

Friends had transported the two victims to Everett, where hospital staff alerted the police. Both victims are being treated at Providence Hospital for life-threatening injuries.


Police are on scene after one man was shot in the leg near a University District club, early Sunday morning.
