CONCORD (CBS SF) -- Southbound Highway 242 was closed from Highway 4 to Solano Way in Concord Sunday evening as California Highway Patrol officers investigated a shooting that injured a man, CHP officials said.

The shooting occurred at about 5:06 p.m. on southbound Highway 242 north of Solano Way in Concord.

Two men in a black Mercedes sedan told CHP officers that they were shot at. One man was hit and suffered injuries not considered life-threatening, according to CHP officials.

The other was not injured, CHP Officer Custudio Lopez said.

The vehicle with the shooter or shooters inside drove away into the city.
