One person was injured in a shooting at a Costa Mesa strip mall late Saturday, according to authorities.

The Costa Mesa Police Department responded to the incident in the 800 block of West 19th Street shortly after 11:30 p.m., police said Monday.

A confrontation outside a bar moved across the street to the parking lot of Vista Plaza before the shooting occurred, according to Costa Mesa police spokeswoman Roxi Fyad.

A shooter fired multiple rounds that hit vehicles and businesses in the area, police said. The extent of property damage was unclear Monday morning.

A 23-year-old Costa Mesa man was taken to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, police said.

No arrests have been made. Fyad said police are “focusing on several parties of interest,” though she did not identify or describe them, saying the case remains an active investigation.

Police declared the shooting an isolated incident and “have no reason to believe that there is an ongoing threat to public safety,” Fyad said.

Anyone with information about the case is asked to call the Police Department at (714) 754-5360.
