The event was advertised on social media and more than 100 people attended.A statement from the Contra Costa County Sheriff's office said, "Arriving officers found a highly chaotic scene that included gunshot victims, injured party-goers, and numerous people fleeing the scene. The party goers apparently came from throughout the Bay Area for the Halloween event."Three people were found dead at the scene and two others died after being rushed to the hospital.
