One person dies, multiple others suffer injuries in I-580 bus shooting

At least one person died in a shooting involving a large passenger bus early Tuesday morning on and near Interstate Highway 580 in Oakland, according to the California Highway Patrol.

Officers initially responded shortly before 12:20 a.m. to a shooting in the area of eastbound Highway 580 at Seminary Avenue, and they arrived to find an initial shooting that happened at the Seminary off-ramp followed by a second shooting nearby at Foothill Boulevard and 68th Avenue, CHP officials said.

Multiple people aboard the bus had suffered gunshot wounds and at least one person succumbed to their injuries while the others were treated at Highland Hospital in Oakland.

The CHP has not released any suspect information related to the shooting but investigators say it does not appear to be a random act of violence.

Anyone with information about the case is asked to call the CHP’s investigative tip line at (707) 917-4491.
