OAKLAND — Three people were wounded in East Oakland shootings Saturday night and Sunday morning, including a man and woman caught in a crossfire at a food truck stand, authorities said.
All the victims were in stable condition at a hospital.
The shooting that left a 32-year-old woman and a 39-year-old man with leg wounds happened about 9:38 p.m. Saturday in the 4400 block of International Boulevard.
Authorities said the two were standing in line at a food truck when some men began shooting at each other nearby.
The man and woman were the only people hit by the gunfire. A car with two occupants was hit by bullets but no one was injured.
The shooters fled before police arrived. What prompted the shooting is under investigation.
The other shooting that left a 28-year-old man with multiple wounds happened about 4:52 a.m. Sunday in the 1400 block of 15th Avenue.
Police said initial reports were that there was a physical fight between a woman who said she was the man’s girlfriend and another woman. When the 28-year-old man intervened he was shot by a man who was with the other woman, authorities said.
The wounded man was driven to a hospital by his girlfriend. The shooter and other woman are being sought.
