The shooting happened about 2:30 p.m. on May 26, police said, at a home on the 14700 block of Birchdale Avenue, police said.
Investigators learned there was a gathering in the home when one of the attendees brandished a firearm and began firing, hitting four men. Other people who were present ran from the house after the shooting, including the suspected shooter, police said.

The fourth man, a 21-year-old, is hospitalized and expected to survive, police said.
