OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) -- A San Leandro man is dead and a woman hospitalized after a shooting at an East Oakland birthday party over the weekend.
Police say the trouble began when 29-year-old Armando Gonzalez beat up a man who was harassing a woman at the party early Sunday morning.
The man who was beaten retrieved a gun and opened fire on Gonzalez as he and his 20-year-old cousin walked away from the house.
Gonzalez died at the scene.
His cousin was taken to a local hospital where police say she was in critical but stable condition with non-life-threatening wounds.
Her name has not been released, but investigators say she was not the woman who was being harassed.
Police are still trying to identify and find the suspect. |
