Update: Oakland shooting kills 18-year-old, injures 4; Others hurt in crash while fleeing
OAKLAND (CBS SF/BCN) – A shooting at a music video shoot Monday evening in Oakland killed an 18-year-old man and injured several other people, police and city officials said.
Mario Navarro died in the shooting reported just after 6 p.m. in the 5900 block of MacArthur Boulevard, where 40 to 50 people were at the music video shoot when gunfire broke out, acting Police Chief Darren Allison said at a news conference Tuesday.
Five people, including Navarro, were struck by the gunfire, which also hit a vehicle and nearby business, and three other people were injured in a crash while fleeing the scene, Allison said.
Allison, filling in for Chief LeRonne Armstrong, who is on administrative leave pending an investigation into a report released last week alleging misconduct within the Police Department, joined Mayor Sheng Thao and other city and community leaders at Tuesday's news conference about the mass shooting.
