Man arrested in Oakland after allegedly shooting another man

Oakland police arrested on Sunday a man suspected of firing multiple shots at another man — and apparently wounding himself as well as his intended victim.

The violence occured shortly after 3 p.m., when police received calls of repeated gunshots on the 3800 block of Penniman Avenue in the Allendale neighborhood, near 35th Avenue and Interstate 580. According to a police spokesman, it appears the suspect fired on his intended victim as the latter was getting into his car. The intended victim was hit but drove himself to a nearby hospital, and is in stable condition.

Police who arrived on the scene found and arrested the suspect near the scene. He also had suffered at least one gunshot wound that, according to police, looks to have been self-inflected. Like the intended victim, the suspect is reported to be in stable condition.
