Vienna Mayor Eddie Daniels indicated that the municipality had not granted any official permits for the party, leading to questions about the event's organization.

Emergency services responded quickly to the scene upon hearing the gunfire while patrolling the area. Initial witness statements suggest that the event had at least a thousand attendees.

As the investigation progresses, local authorities are seeking public information about the incident, hoping to gather leads that will help clarify the events of the tragedy.
