Several men detained, guns found following Arizona State Fair shooting reports

PHOENIX - Several men were temporarily detained and guns were found after reports came in about shots being fired at the Arizona State Fair on Saturday night, the Phoenix Police Department said.

Reports began coming in around 10 p.m. Witnesses told officers a car left the area with the shooters inside, and police were able to stop the car and detain 4 men, but they've been let go after being interviewed.

"Firearms were located and officers are investigating the incident," said Sgt. Phil Krynsky with Phoenix PD.

The men apparently claimed that self-defense was involved when the shots were fired, but it is unclear what specifically occurred.

Several cars were hit by gunfire, but no injuries were reported and no buildings were hit, police said.

It is still unknown whether charges will be filed against the men allegedly involved.

Arizona State Fair staff said that the incident happened "in a nearby neighborhood unrelated to the State Fair."

The fair returned to normal operations on Sunday.
