A man died Sunday in a car outside a San Leandro hospital, surrounded by family, after being shot in a possible road rage incident, police said.

Officers responded to a call of gunshots around Marina Boulevard and Verna Court at 9:47 p.m. They soon received another call about a woman screaming in the parking lot of Kaiser Permanente San Leandro Medical Center, a few blocks away, officials said.

When they arrived, police found the victim in the driver’s seat of the vehicle suffering from gunshot wounds, with his wife and other family members also in the car. The man, whose name was not immediately released, was pronounced dead after police officers and emergency technicians attempted to revive him, officials said.

Police found evidence of a shooting about a half mile north of the medical center, on the 1900 block of Marina Boulevard, officials said. Police believe the victim was traveling westbound on Marina Boulevard when the shooting erupted, according to Lt. Rick DeCosta of the San Leandro Police Department.

The shooting may have been the result of a road rage incident, DeCosta said. He added that detectives are investigating when the altercation began and why. No arrests have been made.

The San Leandro Police Department asked that anyone with information on the shooting call the Criminal Investigations Division at (510) 577-3230.
