Two People Injured in Separate Shootings Early Sunday in Stockton
Stockton police are investigating two unrelated shootings that left two people injured early Sunday morning, according to CBS Sacramento. Both incidents occurred within a short time frame, but authorities have stated that they are not connected.
The first shooting took place just before 1:00 a.m. on the 3000 block of Larchmont Drive. A 24-year-old man was reportedly shot by someone he was with at the time. According to police, the man was not in a life-threatening condition when he was transported to the hospital for treatment. Authorities have not yet released further details about the suspect or the circumstances surrounding the incident.
Less than two hours later, around 2:10 a.m., a second shooting occurred near Eight Mile Road and Regatta Lane. This time, an 18-year-old man was driving when a silver SUV pulled up, and individuals inside fired shots at him. The 18-year-old also sustained injuries that were not life-threatening and was taken to the hospital for medical care.
The Stockton Police Department is investigating both incidents. These two shootings add to the ongoing concerns about gun violence in the area, though police have emphasized that the incidents appear to be isolated and unrelated. The community is urged to stay vigilant and report any suspicious activity to help curb violence in the city.
