Swiss police reported shots that caused several victims during a techno music rave party in northern Switzerland. The party was taking place at the Aarau racecourse, a venue that was hosting approximately 3,500 people at the time of the incident.

Authorities have not yet been able to determine the exact number of victims or their condition. Available information indicates only that several people were affected by the shots.

The incident occurred during a techno music event, a genre associated with rave parties that frequently take place at night in large venues. The Aarau racecourse is a space normally dedicated to horse racing, but was being used to host this large-scale music event.
