Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom called for the end of the 'scourge of gun violence' after a mass shooting in California left six dead and 10 injured Sunday.
"Sadly, we once again mourn the lives lost and for those injured in yet another horrendous act of gun violence," Newsom said in a statement Sunday. "Jennifer and I send our heartfelt condolences to the family, friends, and to the wider community impacted by this terrible tragedy."
Sacramento Police Chief Kathy Lester said Sunday that officers were patrolling the downtown area at about 2 a.m. when they heard gunfire. At least two shooters opened fire before dawn Sunday in Sacramento in the city’s second mass shooting in five weeks, killing six people and wounding 12 others as bars closed for the night and crowds emptied onto downtown streets, police said.
