SACRAMENTO, Calif. (KCRA) — A 28-year-old man died after being shot Tuesday morning in Sacramento County, and the suspected shooter remains at large, the sheriff’s office said.
Deputies are searching for a gunman after receiving reports of a shooting around 9:45 a.m. in the 4000 block of South Watt Avenue, the sheriff’s office said. A caller said they heard two shots and saw one person who was hit.
A man who was hit by gunfire later died at the hospital, the sheriff’s office said.
Evidence markers could be seen outside the Monte Bello Apartment complex and near a car on South Watt Avenue. Items of clothing and what appeared to be blood were also visible near the vehicle.
People were asked to avoid South Watt Avenue and Jackson Road.
Deputies said they believed initially that the suspect may be in the apartment complex. But the scene was clearing Tuesday evening without the announcement of an arrest.
