A late-night shooting in Suisun City, California, has left two people dead and prompted an active homicide investigation by local authorities. The incident occurred in the 1100 block of School Street and is being investigated by the Suisun City Police Department, which confirmed that officers responded shortly after multiple emergency calls reported gunfire in the area.
According to official information released by investigators, the call came in at approximately 9:44 p.m. on Sunday, May 17. When officers arrived at the scene outside an apartment complex parking lot, they discovered an adult male and an adult female suffering from apparent gunshot wounds. Emergency responders immediately initiated lifesaving efforts, including CPR, while additional medical personnel were dispatched to assist.
Despite these efforts, the male victim was pronounced deceased at the scene. The female victim was transported to a nearby hospital for emergency treatment but later succumbed to her injuries. Authorities have not yet released the identities of the victims, pending notification of their next of kin.
