Two men were killed Monday on an Oakland Street when they were both shot multiple times in a brazen broad-daylight attack near the MacArthur BART Station, police said.

The victims, who were not identified, were gunned down around 10:15 a.m. on the 700 block of 39th Street, between West Street and Martin Luther King Jr. Way, said Lt. Roland Holmgren, head of the Oakland Police Homicide Unit.

The city’s ShotSpotter gunfire detection system notified police of the shooting. When officers arrived at the scene, they found both victims suffering from multiple gunshot wounds and a sedan that also had bullet holes, Holmgren said.

Both men were pronounced dead at the scene, Holmgren said.

No suspect was identified or arrested in the killings.

A woman who lives on 39th Street said the shooting happened outside her house and she dove onto the floor when she heard at least 10 shots. The woman, who did not want to give her name, said that once the shooting subsided she went outside and recognized one of one of the victims as an 18-year-old neighbor.

“He was on the ground in front of me lying in a puddle of blood,” said the woman. “I saw his eyes. I’ll never forget that.”

She said the other victim was sitting inside the shot up sedan wounded.

Holmgren said more than 10 shots were fired in the incident and police were asking any witnesses to come forward.

He said homicide detectives believe that multiple suspects were involved in the shooting.

A $20,000 rewards is being offered for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the killers.
