Pittsburg police say a man is in critical but stable condition, after being found shot inside his vehicle late Sunday night at the intersection of Castlewood Drive and Kirker Pass Road, just over the hill from Concord.
Police responded to calls about shots fired shortly after 11:15 p.m. around Frontage Road and Crestview Drive and, after not finding any signs of a shooting, received another call at 11:35 p.m. about the man at the intersection.
Officers found the victim inside a vehicle, suffering from gunshot wounds to the upper torso. The man was taken to a hospital.
Police said the shooting didn’t occur at Castlewood Drive and Kicker Pass Road. Using the city’s public safety surveillance system, police determined the shooting took place near the intersection of Thomas Way and Crestview Drive.
Officers found several expended casings and damage to a nearby house at the location. No other victims were located.
Police said on the department’s Facebook page that the shooting may be related to a road-rage incident that occurred 30 minutes prior to police finding the victim. They ask anyone with information to contact the Pittsburg Police Department tip line at (925) 252-4040.

“Using the city’s public safety surveillance system”…
What? Does Concord have shot spotter, or a decent video surveillance system?
Never knew that – or have seen anything regarding that (on the road, or in the press)
Pittsburg PD. Not Concord PD.
You can’t fart or blink without government monitoring it.
Welcome to the police state
I fart dozens of times per day beyond the government’s prying eyes. (Just ask my wife.)
Technology that records events on public thoroughfares or alerts the authorities to gunshots in urban and suburban neighborhoods is hardly an egregious intrusion.
My farts, however, are an egregious intrusion. (Again, just ask my wife.)
It’s the Wild West out there, keep your heads down partners.

Well, we are not a very good police state or this would not have happened.
Keep shooting at each other and leave the rest of us alone.
It is mostly the criminals who have all rhe guns that politicians say law abiding citizens should give up. See a problem with this
