SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Sacramento Police released more information Wednesday about a Monday night shooting that left one person dead and another injured.
According to a news release, patrol officers responded to the 30 block of Arcade Boulevard for a report of a shooting and house fire around 11:20 p.m. Monday.
When officers got to the scene, they found evidence of burned property and a shooting, but no injuries were reported.
Two men with gunshot wounds were found shortly after in the 3600 block of Waynesburg Way. One of the men was pronounced dead at the scene and the other was taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
Debra Cummings, who is a Del Paso Heights native and a community activist, shook her head at the crime and death filling her neighborhood.
"I can just imagine what these families are going through so I am boots-to-the-ground for this type of work because I know how it feels," Cummings said.
Cummings said shootings are unfortunately common in Del Paso Heights and said she hopes this is a wake-up call for city leaders.
"I say to all the city councilmen and the mayor and everybody else... take a good look at Del Paso Heights. This is what our kids and our young adults have to deal with day in and day out," Cummings said.
