A man was shot and killed in Antioch on Sunday, not far from the site of a double slaying in June, police said.

The latest burst of violence happened on the 1800 block of Cavallo Road about 6:25 p.m. Sunday, said Antioch police Lt. Thomas Fuhrmann.

A woman called police saying she heard gunfire, looked outside and saw someone on the ground, authorities said.

Officers arrived and found the victim unresponsive in a driveway, suffering from at least one gunshot wound, Fuhrmann said.

The victim, who wasn’t immediately identified, died at a local hospital. No arrest has been made.

On June 17, a chaotic gunbattle erupted on the same block during a street robbery. Three men approached a group of people on the street and tried to rob them at gunpoint. During the confrontation one of the assailants opened fire, injuring a woman.

But another victim in the group, who was armed with a gun, opened fire, killing the shooter, police said. That’s when a second robber pulled out a gun and opened fire, killing a second woman. The two men in that case have been arrested and charged.
