SAN DIEGO — One person is dead and another has been injured in a shooting in Liberty Station Saturday evening, according to the San Diego Police Department.
SDPD reports that they received a call around 6:45 p.m. about the shooting, which was near a grassy area near Cushing and Womble Roads at a Juneteenth event.
Hundreds of people were attending the celebration at Liberty Station, which included live music, when gunshots were fired. The crowd scattered and police say two people were taken to a local hospital. One of the individuals died and at last report the other person had non-life-threatening injuries.
“As far as we can tell this was a result of a dispute. This was not an active shooter event or anything of that type. This appears to be an isolated incident. One person is the deceased,” said Lieutenant Adam Sharki with the San Diego Police Department. “Right now we believe there is somebody who is unaccounted for as far as the suspect side goes. So we are looking for a suspect, but I have no information on who that person might be, what their description is.”
Homicide detectives are investigating this case and no arrests have been. Police ask that anyone with information contact the San Diego Police Department.
