OAKLAND — A man died and another was injured in separate shootings Monday night in East Oakland neighborhoods, authorities said.
Shortly after 5:15 p.m., police responded to reports of a possible shooting in the 1400 block of 105th Avenue in the city’s Durant Manor neighborhood.
When officers arrived, they found a man suffering from a gunshot wound to his ankle and provided care until first responders could transport him to a hospital for treatment of non-life-threatening injury. His condition was not known late Monday.
Around 6:30 p.m., police responded to reports of shots fired near a home in the 1100 block of 90th Avenue in the city’s Highland neighborhood.
When officers arrived, they found an unconscious man suffering from at least one gunshot wound. Officers and paramedics provided life-saving measures, but the man was pronounced dead at the scene. Police declined to identify him, pending next-of-kin notification from the Alameda County Sheriff’s Office coroner’s bureau.
The killing is the 111th homicide investigated by Oakland police this year, following a fatal shooting of a woman Sunday in North Oakland. The California Highway Patrol has also investigated five homicides on Oakland freeways. Last year at this time, Oakland police had investigated 120 homicides in the city.
Investigators did not share any motives or word of any suspects in custody, and did not release any suspect or associated vehicle description.
