When police arrived at the area, numerous people were fleeing the scene both in cars and on foot.
Officers said they stopped a vehicle leaving the scene, which had four people, including 3 juveniles, who later learned they were a part of the initial fight.
The fight took place in a parking lot during a party at the location.
According to SPD, officers removed the people from the car and saw a handgun in the back seat.
