One man was shot and another suffered a facial injury Saturday when six suspects tried to steal their camera equipment during a photo shoot at a San Diego park.
The shooting was reported at 6:49 p.m. at Chicano Park on National Avenue, according to San Diego police Officer Robert Heims.
Two men were approached by three males and three females in their 20s or younger who tried to steal the equipment, Heims said.
“A struggle ensued and during the struggle, one of the male suspects pulled out a gun and shot multiple rounds at the victims,” he said.
A 24-year-old man suffered a gunshot wound to the lower body, while a 25-year-old man suffered a bloody lip, Heims said.
The suspects got into a black Honda Civic and drove away, he said.
Officers called in gang detectives to investigate the attack, Heims said.
