SAN JOSE (CBS SF) -- An 18-year-old San Jose man is in jail Thursday after being arrested on suspicion of shooting another man near the intersection of Cadillac Drive and South Winchester Boulevard on Tuesday.

Officers responded to reports of a shooting in the 3100 block of Cadillac Drive shortly after 2:30 p.m. Tuesday and found a 25-year-old San Jose man who had been shot at least once, police said.
