In a news conference, an SAPD spokesperson said that a woman and a man were leaving a home when they were both shot.
The spokesperson said that the suspect, who’s believed to be in his 20s, fired the gunshots through a fence.
It’s currently unclear where the suspect fired the gunshots from.
A family member of the suspect later removed the gun from his hands. The shooter then surrendered to officers without further incident, the spokesperson said.
The department is working to determine if there was an ongoing feud between the suspect and the victims since they’re neighbors.
The SAPD spokesperson could not provide a reason for what prompted the gunfire.
