Oakland, California, police investigated a run of shootings across the city late Saturday night and early Sunday morning, including a killing in the city’s Chinatown district and several shootings in East Oakland that left five people injured.
The bloodshed marked the second straight night of heightened violence in the city, coming a day after two men and a woman were fatally shot in East Oakland within a three-hour stretch on Friday night. No arrests have been announced in any of the shootings, which do not appear to be related, authorities said.
The city’s fourth homicide in two nights came about 1:20 a.m. Sunday, when a 44-year-old man was shot in the 700 block of Webster Street in Oakland’s Chinatown district. The man was taken to a hospital, where he died about five hours later, authorities said.
