Iran Press/America: The hail of gunfire rang out around 11:30 p.m. on a busy street lined with restaurants and shops in Germantown, according to US media.
Security footage showed a group of people ambushed on the street corner when a van pulled up carrying six people wearing masks.
The attackers opened fire on the group — some of whom returned fire, the station said.
A 21-year-old woman was hit multiple times and taken to the hospital in critical condition.
As police investigated the shootout, five men between the ages of 19 and 29 checked into area hospitals with gunshot wounds.
Every year thousands of people lose their lives or get wounded by gunshot attacks. Based on official statistics there are around 270 to 300 million guns in the US, which is almost one gun for every American. 219
