The officer attempted to stop the vehicle but the driver failed to yield. The vehicle eventually stopped near the top of Wolfe Grade.
Officers located four people inside the vehicle, with two of the occupants suffering from gunshot wounds. One victim, a 25-year-old male from Fairfield sustained life threatening injuries. The second victim, a 25-year-old male from Pittsburg sustained non-life-threatening injuries.
Other responding units arrived at the Lootens Place shooting scene. An additional gunshot victim was found in the parking structure. The victim, a 62-year-old man from San Rafael, was transported to an area hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
At about the same time dispatch was notified of a traffic collision. Arriving officers discovered that the occupants in the vehicle were also victims of the downtown shooting.
One victim, a 24-year-old male from Stockton, was deceased at the scene and the second victim, a 29-year-old male from Stockton, was transported to an area hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

A vehicle pulled up to the emergency department and summoned help for one of his passengers. Once the victim was removed from the car by medical personnel the vehicle fled.
The victim, a 27-year-old man from Fairfield, died of his injuries at the hospital.
The victims told investigators they were either at the concert or on their way to it, he said.
No weapons were found in any of the vehicles. Gun casings from a high-powered automatic rifle were found at the garage.
The owner of George’s Nightclub told the San Francisco Chronicle she informed police of plans to book Detroit-based rapper Icewear Vezzo two weeks earlier and officers stopped by Friday night to check the venue’s security. Additionally, eight private security guards staffed the event and “nothing happened inside,” Esly Figueroa said.
