A manhunt for a killer or killers was underway Sunday in Sacramento in the US after a shooting rampage left six people dead and fueled a chaotic scene in a downtown area packed with bar crowds, according to USA Today.
Police Chief Kathy Lester said officers arriving at the scene around 2 a.m. Sunday found bodies on the street amid a large crowd gathered in an area. Police initially reported “multiple victims” after the attack, not far from the State Capitol, as they waded through the carnage counting casualties.
Broken glass and police evidence markers were strewn across multiple blocks. Police tweeted that investigators were aware of a social media video “that appears to show an altercation” taking place just prior to the shooting. No arrests were immediately made, and an online portal was opened for the public to upload evidence.
In another event authorities on Sunday were investigating a shooting at an outdoor concert in Dallas that left one man dead and 11 others injured.
Police responded to a shooting call around 12:15 a.m. Sunday morning at an all-day outdoor trail ride and concert event in the Oak Cliff neighborhood of Dallas.
Police identified Kealon Dejuane Gilmore, 26, as the fatal shooting victim. Gilmore was found near the stage of the event with a gunshot wound to the head and died at the scene, according to police.
The 11 individuals injured in the shooting were taken to a nearby hospital, where one victim is in critical condition and the others are in stable condition, police said. Other attendees sustained minor trampling injuries in the scuffle of people fleeing the scene, according to police.
Two separate individuals each fired weapons at the concert, according to a statement released by police Sunday morning. /argumentum.al
