Authorities say one person was dead and seven others were injured in a shooting at a Kentucky nightclub early Saturday morning.

Officers with the Louisville Metro Police Department said they responded to a call reporting multiple people had been shot at the H20 nightclub in Louisville shortly before 1 a.m.

One man, 40-year-old Joseph D. Bowers of Indianapolis, was pronounced dead at the scene. Another adult was taken to UofL Hospital with gunshot wounds that police consider “critical and life-threatening.” Six other people were self-transported to area hospitals with injuries that were not life-threatening.

The Louisville Metro Police Department’s Homicide Unit is investigating the case. There are currently no suspects. “The victims’ relationships, if any, are unknown at this time,” police said in a statement later Saturday.
