On Sunday, June 28, 2015, at 11:21 a.m., the Sacramento Police Department received a report of a man shot, in a parking lot near the 1400 block of Meadowview Road.

Officers arrived and located an unresponsive 20-year-old man in a vehicle with an apparent gunshot injury.   

Sacramento Fire Department personnel responded to the scene, administered CPR, and the man was rushed to an area hospital.  Despite life-saving efforts, the victim succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced deceased at the hospital.

A preliminary investigation revealed that the victim had driven a vehicle into the large business parking lot when he was shot.  The unknown suspect(s), who were also in a vehicle, fired multiple shots toward the victim from their car, before fleeing the area.
