At Least One Dead in Little Italy Shooting; Officer shot at second crime scene – NBC 7 San Diego

San Diego police were investigating a fatal shooting in broad daylight in San Diego’s Little Italy neighborhood on Wednesday and a police-involved shooting a short time later.

Around 8:20 a.m., police were called to Ash and Union streets, near the Simone Little Italy apartment complex. Police confirmed that at least one person had died.

Don Stevenson told NBC 7 that he witnessed the incident near Ash Street

“I pulled up to a construction site,” Stevenson said, “a guy walked up to a car, shot … two people and ran.”

About an hour later, there was a large police presence at a second crime scene about a mile away in the 2200 block of Kettner Boulevard, near Juniper Street. Harbor Police told NBC 7 that an officer was struck by gunfire during a shooting there, about a mile from the first shooting, and that a suspect was at that location.

San Diego police said at 10 a.m. they expected to hold a news conference with more information within an hour.
