A shooting in the early hours of Sunday morning at a birthday party in Antioch left eight people shot, with seven people injured and one person dead.
Antioch police received calls at around 12:58 a.m. reporting shots fired in the 3300 block of Sunset Lane. Officers said they found multiple victims outside.
Officers were told that a panic was created after multiple shots were fired following the arrival of uninvited guests.
An 18-year-old woman was transported to a local hospital where she was pronounced dead. Seven other victims suffered non-life-threatening gunshot wounds.
Suspects fled the area prior to police arrival, and the investigation remains active.
That’s what happens when you fire HALF the police force!
Criminals rule Antioch! The mayor is a real POS!
Because some texts hurt somebodies widdle feewings.
It isn’t even a lack of police, it’s the people who wish to live that life style. Those that don’t wish it never open their mouths to get more prison sentences and more police. Until the people get real this horrendous behavior will continue no matter how many police are out there. I will never understand them.
And the owners there at the house had no available gun to defend themselves?
Look people you need to arm yourselves in your own home in case you get some rejects crashing the party and opening up ESPECIALLY in Antioch..
I believe I heard last night on the news that an eighteen year old girl was shot and killed in the same house two years ago.
Thank you Otis
Antioch being Antioch. Thousands of section 8 rentals and more and more government subsidies. Is this any surprise to anybody.

This is a section 8 rental in Antioch. I worker 31 years as a Paramedic in Oakland and now work as a Medic in a refinery. I can barely afford my 3k mortgage for my 55 yr old home in Concord. That is what section 8 renters get basically for free. Outrageous.
Wow, that’s quite a house. Bogus.
It’s just the culture over there at Antioch. Nothing to see folks.
I remember birthday parties. There was a shooting at everyone when I was a kid. Oh wait a minute, that was on the TV. Why would someone take the occasion of a Birthday Party to shoot eight people? You really have to be careful who you invite nowadays. A young lady is dead. What a mess.
We also had shootings at childhood birthday parties. They were with cap guns.
Probably a gang-related thing. You lie with dogs and you get fleas. Stuff like this is NOT random.
But “racism” is the Biggest issue in Contra Costa County.
Will the DOJ be investigating or are they too busy looking through All Law Enforcements Private texts for any language to hang them with???
It’s the reason you have fewer police officers in Antioch right now. Seems like you agree it has mighty big consequences.
Yeah, which hunts and trying to silence people blowing off steam (and free speech) certainly DOES have consequences. We get more and more like this every day. Liberals love to tell other people what to do It is pretty much totalitarian at this point.

Because… Antioch.

Talk about a fire birthday bash … jeez
Antioch is now the “Oakland East.”
Diversity is our strength
Please don’t move out of your city if you voted for these idiots, stay put and live with it.
If Antioch can figure out who the shooter(s) was/were, the DA will have to go through the arresting officers’ phones to ensure they haven’t said anything improper in order to really determine the offender’s guilt.
What does section 8 have to do with the behavior of people? Was section 8 the reason we have had racist cops around here for years beating innocent people? I have a few jobs and co-workers that have been killers I have walked amongst those killers weren’t on section 8 and neither are those racist cops . How about when the cops were on non-response to the community for over 8 months and did not inform not one person. They only way I knew is because Im a dispatcher. Talk about the parents and elder examples before coming for a program designed to help people get on their feet. Seek first the kingdom of heaven. The judgement you’ve passed will revisit you soon.. God bless

It is extremely difficult to read what you wrote. Your first two sentences are worded well enough to read, but from the third on, it is not coherent. I would like to understand what you wrote to understand if I can agree with you or disagree.
Huh??? The grammar is literally incoherent. If you are challenging the fact that this is an issue and shifting blame to PD and LEOs, that is very misguided.
Don’t worry, if they ever catch the shooter(s) Becton will find some way to reduce the charges and/or let them off the hook entirely.
It’s almost like “Ho hum, another weekend party shooting.” Even if caught there will be no real consequences to the shooter(s). Shooting event might even get somehow blamed on the party attendees instead. Seems like people can go to jail for life for events that are less than murder but not the ones who actually do murder.
The event is another good reason to adopt Newsom’s 28th amendment proposal; it is time to rein in senseless gun violence.
Paul
How can you think controlling more guns will reduce the gun violence? Are you naïve enough to believe that these shooters had legally acquired these guns? These shooters did not legally own them (my belief) and therefore this joke of amendment would have no bearing on this event. Apply some critical thinking here Paul.
Newscum is a bimbo pawn being controlled by Soros and his henchmen.
Newscum needs to be put out to pasture with the rest of the cows of society.
Nothing good happens after midnight.
@ Paul Over my dead body. You just cry for help see how far that gets you. I will defend my family and friends with all legal means necessary. FU.
How many other cities of 115,000 have Shot Spotter installed to pinpoint gunfire ? ? ?

Grandson and a friend were sitting having quiet conversation in walled courtyard at front of residence, in antioch, late at night. Heard a noise and saw dome light come on in new SUV parked on driveway less than 20 feet away, then found adult male going thru glove box.

Didn’t elaborate on extent of injuries, hopefully a long lasting limp is involved.
No Police report made.
