Four people have been shot in southeast Denver, the Denver Police Department said Monday morning. Witnesses told CBS News Colorado that it began with a dispute over a work ticket at LaborMax Staffing in the 7100 block of Leetsdale Drive, between South Oneida Street and South Quebec Street.

The ticket allows people to work at a job site. After the dispute, a fight began just outside the doors of the company. That's when a witness said a man grabbed a gun and started shooting. 

Police said all four victims were men. The extent of their injuries is unknown.

CBS News Colorado's helicopter flew over the scene Monday morning and captured a large police presence in the strip mall. A portion of the parking lot was taped off by police.

Specifically, the area immediately in front of The Dirt Beast, LaborMax Staffing and the Arc Thrift Donation Station was taped off as investigators combed the area for evidence.

Glass at the office's storefront was shattered along the sidewalk and several evidence markers were seen on the ground nearby. Bullet holes were also seen through the driver's side of a silver Honda.
