FOWLER, Calif. (KFSN) -- A young woman was shot and a teen aged girl was injured in an attack in Fowler Tuesday morning. It happened at a house near Fourth and Vine Street.

Fowler Police said two young men barged into the home where several girls and young women were having a slumber party. They shot a 21-year-old woman and pistol whipped a 17-year-old girl.

Tony Garza rushed to the house when his daughter called him after the attack.

"House full of girls-- house full of little girls you know what I mean, and some guy wants to go in there with a pistol."

Garza said his daughter was traumatized but not hurt.

The injured woman and girl were treated for their wounds at a Fresno hospital and released late Tuesday.

The Fresno County Sheriff's Office has taken over the investigation and deputies are searching for the suspects.
