Classes were canceled Thursday at an East Oakland school campus where a mass shooting took place the day before, injuring six adults.
Meanwhile, Oakland police officers were still looking for at least one shooter, though others may be involved, according to Oakland Assistant Police Chief Darren Allison.
Witnesses on the scene said they saw multiple gunmen and described them as kids. A parent told KTVU that she witnessed five potential shooters. Police have not yet said if they believe the shooting at King Estate of Rudsdale Newcomer High School was targeted or not, and they haven’t released a description of the suspects or vehicle that might’ve been used.
Three people were taken by ambulance to Highland Hospital, a hospital administrator said, and another three victims were taken to Eden Medical Center, according to the Alameda County Sheriff’s Office. All of them were adults with some affiliation to the campus – a cluster of four Oakland Unified School District schools on the 8200 block of Fontaine Street.
The King Estate campus where the shooting occurred houses Rudsdale Continuation and Newcomer high schools, BayTech Charter School, and the headquarters of Sojourner Truth Independent Study, the school district said. The Sojourner Truth Independent Study does not have students at the siteIn the early moments following the shooting, parents were panicked and told to pick up their children at a nearby church.
