Oakland Juneteenth shooting remains unsolved [Video]

Alameda County District Attorney Pamela Price on Tuesday addressed the violence that erupted at a Juneteenth festival in Oakland, which ended with more than a dozen people being shot.

Price held a press conference where she referred to the incident as a mass shooting.

“A mass shooting is generally defined as any time a person shoots more than four people in a single incident. Certainly, we believe that the incident on the evening of Juneteenth qualifies for that,” said Price.

The shooting happened last week after a sideshow broke out on the north side of Lake Merritt.

“We know there were multiple shooters,” she said. “It does not appear that one person was targeting particular people or that particular people were targeted. There were multiple incidents that appear to have spiraled out of control.”

The Oakland Police Department is still investigating the incident, and there have not been any arrests related to the actual shooting.
