MOSES LAKE, Wash. — The Grant County Sheriff’s Office is reporting that two people were shot Friday night at the Grant County Fair in Moses Lake.

One person was detained after the shooting.

Both victims were taken to the hospital. Their conditions have not been released.

The shooting happened in the carnival area of the fairgrounds. Fairgoers on most of the grounds were asked to evacuate.

The rodeo was not evacuated until after the event ended. Those in the campground were not asked to evacuate.

Editors note: An earlier release from the Grant County Sheriff’s Office had stated the victims were juveniles. That was taken out of a later release.
