The car crashed into a pole nearby at Harrisburg Boulevard, where\u00a0a man was found dead inside, according to police. Police say another person in the car\u00a0fled, collapsed\u00a0down the street on Capitol Street and later died.\u00a0
The fourth and fifth suspects were also injured and taken to a hospital, police said.
Outside the house, homicide investigators are combing through the crime scene where it appears there was a shootout; several dozen shell casings have been found.\u00a0

Now, let\u2019s imagine how someone in a situation like this would fair under a 10-round magazine limit. Oh, they could change magazines in theory, but with that much lead flying around? More rounds\u00a0in the weapon at the start is always a better place to be.
Of course, if a 10-round limit is bad, imagine what they\u2019d go through if they were stuck with\u00a0Oregon\u2019s proposed 5-round limit<\/a>. This man would\u2019ve never had enough ammo on his person to have survived this one.
