SAN LEANDRO — With his wife and two small children riding with him, a driver was fatally shot Sunday night in an apparent case of road rage, police said Monday.

About 9:47 p.m. Sunday, 911 calls reported gunshots in the area of Marina Boulevard and Verna Court. While officers were responding to the shooting, another call came from the 2500 block of Merced Street, where a woman was screaming for help in the Kaiser Hospital parking lot.

At the hospital, officers found a man with a gunshot wound in the driver’s seat of an SUV, and a screaming woman who identified herself as his wife. A 5-year-old child and an infant were also in the vehicle, police said, but it was not immediately known if the children were related to victim.

Officers and emergency personnel attempted life-saving measures on the man but he was pronounced dead.

No one else was injured, police said.

Officers later discovered evidence that the shooting happened in the 1900 block of Marina Boulevard, about a half-mile north of the hospital.

Lt. Rick DeCosta said it appears the man exchanged words with another motorist before he was shot over an apparent traffic incident.

After the man was shot, his wife was apparently able take over control of the SUV and drive to the hospital, DeCosta said.

No other details were released.

Anyone with information about the killing is asked to call police at 510-577-3230.
