The second shooting was reported just after 2 a.m. in East Oakland, in the 1300 block of 102nd Avenue, after a ShotSpotter activation.

Arriving officers located an adult male victim from Antioch who had suffered at least one gunshot wound. Paramedics responded to the scene to render aid and transported the victim to a local hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
