Five people were taken to the hospital after being shot near La Renera Bakery just north of Palview.

Hidalgo County Sheriff Investigators told Action 4 News they do not know what started the firefight—but confirmed it happened in the backyard of a home just west of La Homa and Mile 6.

Sources told Action 4 News that two of the five shot have died.

The condition of the others are unknown at this time.

Witnesses told deputies they saw a maroon SUV speeding away from the scene.

That vehicle has since been found abandoned.

No arrests have been made at this time.
