India, July 20 -- A shooting has reportedly taken place in Washington's Renton, police said on Sunday, adding the incident may have "multiple victims".

The incident took place just after 7:30 pm near Kirkland Ave NE and NE 18th St, and an investigation is underway.

"This is an active scene, so expect a heavy police presence and please avoid the area," the Renton Police Department said in a statement.

The incident comes over a week after a man was shot five times at a transit centre in Renton. However, the previous incident followed a scuffle between a group in the area, and the prosecutors do not plan to press charges, Fox13 Seattle had reported.
