Portland Police later confirmed that a shooting did take place inside the Roseland Theater, but in a release sent out early Friday morning, they said "no gunshot victims were located" following the shooting.

Police have not ruled out the possibility of a shooting victim leaving the theater prior to their arrival. "Initial reports are that someone fired a gun inside the theater and there may be a victim that left the scene prior to police arrival," the release said. "At this point, no gunshot victims have been located or have arrived at any area hospital."

The Game was at Roseland for a stop on his 1992 Block Wars tour.
