SAN JOSE, Calif. - San Jose police are investigating a mass shooting Tuesday night that left two people dead and four others wounded. 

Originally, police said five people had been shot. 

The gunfire erupted at about 10 p.m. on South 8th Street, near Margaret Street, just south of the San Jose State University campus.
