potential. borrows life was stolen from there's deep trauma that is seeded in our community because of the gun violence that is that plagues our community. apologize to the students that fromm's martial arts that have to deal with this trauma knowing that someone was shot in your community and that for a moment in time that you were on site. every child should be aafe here in oakland. every

sorry to the parents that have to deal with this. the struggles with this. but oakland is a resilient city and together as we're talking about would cease fire if we all come together, we can defeat gun violence in our city. thank you, mayor >> and so at this point, we'll open for regards to sept this subject matter. please go and raise your hand and i will call upon you in the right person from standing up here right next to me, we'll come up to answer your questions. like we're out is i also video out >> thank you for the question. we are reviewing several pieces of we're not prepared to push at this time any of the leads they're so see what that evidence. but we are we have a lot of information that to sift through what i can say is, as i mentioned earlier, there were multiple shooters. but at this point in we're just trying to gather that formulate are next steps in the investigation. >> talk to >> word is that there's a lot of casings at the scene. so we're and video. so we're trying to work through that. that evidence piece to get a firm number on on what we have. we know it's more than one. >> look, >> we saw various caliber casings out we we >> handgun casings are low caliber casings as well as what appears to be replications. >> so just to clarify, you game is add to your >> we have a good sense of involved parties as far as groups and gangs were not prepared to release time. but we do i think, saw leads to go forward in this case. what was the name for a they? >> when their >> i think, you know, i want to speculate too much. you know, there is a group there. we know some were affiliated with the music video somewhere in the course of their day-to-day activities. what the draw was is still going to be under investigation. >> people. >> tragically inner we do experience of a significant number shootings getting a group we have a number of active conflicts, a number of all conflicts that could spark a bit any time. so the ideas we have behind these groups, they're not new conflicts. the things they're always in the potential for violence. so something that we're paying close attention to is one of the reasons why i know with our community pass, pastor dixon and what kim jones was indicating that were so intent on. if you're thinking about retaliating, there's an avenue. there's another path way that's not picking up a firearm. there's a way that we can work together and mediator way through this. and so definitely want to lift up what pastor dixon said and to reach out to prevent any retaliatory shootings. >> and free going how people looking at, you >> that complex can't they're not going to be solved with a gun. it's just doesn't that violence is not an accepted way for any kind of conflict resolution that there's things that could be done through mediation. there's things that could be done just through understanding that we all we are all here together as as humanity and and and taking the life of another person for any reason is not acceptable way of living amongst one another. so for us, our job is to ensure safety to follow up on individuals and tragedies and to know and let the community know and have confidence that we will employ every resource. i know i mention or cease-fire partnerships. we also have strong partnerships with our federal partners and our local partners. and we'll play every measure that we have in our stead that if you do not put the guns down, if you do not engage. and in behaviors that are not associated violence, we will hold you accountable and we will bring you to justice. >> so >> are our direct addresses. anybody that is at risk of gun violence either on the offender side or on the victim's side. i certainly have captain jones going a little bit more detail of our direct communication process. but we if if we think that there's a way to minimize and mitigate violence, we will reach out to those individuals can do to us. jason, for that. so just a follow-up to a chief. alison just said in answer a question that is something that we regularly do with in oakland pastor dixon and routinely drive around and just get out and talk to people on hot spots in various parts of the city. but incidents like this, we always try to identify people who we think prone to violence are prone to being a victim of violence and try to engage them with the message that's tailored towards their specific circumstances that they're going through in that moment. so in the in the coming days, we will be looking to reach out to individuals who may be connected with some of the victims associates of the victims and trying to deliver message of hope, trying to get them to calm down to lower the temperature on on the things that are are going on between the parties involved and try to get them to 2. you know, resolve this thing in a peaceful way so that nobody else go has to go to jail nobody else you have to become a victim of government. what we always feel to realize what captain jones brings. you want side, but there are services that are offered. there's more than just don't stop shooting. there's things that you may need mental help, whatever they may need at that time, we reach out to those that are either on the victim's side, the ones that purple perfect per per teacher. the violence perpetrated the violence. whatever side. so it's not just going on this and stop and you better stop is saying, hey, we have this for you. we have that for you. we have this for you. and that's something that the community needs to know. cease-fire is about holding everybody accountable. and those that might be able to influence. thank you, demeanor, those that might be in florence 70's. we talked to mothers, fathers, brothers, cousins, best friends, were talked to a lot of people. and he's more than just captain jones at the department of violence. prevention plays a big part of that of where they go and they offer the services. and i hope the department of violence prevention accountable. and i hold opd accountable. so 5 are calling for a news conference. you better believe they're not being accountable. >> when >> so we had 5 victims who were struck by gunfire. the additional victims were either victims of the shooting, they were not struck personally but their business was struck. we had one where their business truck, but that individual was not it by gunfire. and then we had another vehicle that was struck by gunfire with one occupant who was struck by gunfire. 2 that were not. and then we had additional 3 who were involved in a collision that were not struck by gunfire. so we had 5 struck by gunfire and then 3 that had complaints of injuries from the collision. >> well, thank you all so much for joining us that will conclude our press conference. thank we've been listening to oakland leaders give a very passionate plea for oakland city. >> community members to put the guns down. it is clear in california. we are not immune to this epidemic of gun violence, especially from what we've seen over the last few days. they were giving an update on a mass shooting that approximately 40 to 50 people were at that location, shooting a music video and that's when gunfire broke out from multiple shooters in various all of the victim self transported themselves to the hospital. 5 people

businesses that were struck by gunfire as well as a vehicle struck by bullets. after trying to leave the scene. there was also a crash that happened, which is the 3 additional victims who suffered injuries in a crash. only one person still at the hospital at this hour. oakland police looking into the possibility of gang involvement for they have a good sense of the involved parties, but they would not press further on who those involved parties might be. if you have any video of pd wants to see it, they want to hear from you and they would like for you to give them that footage. we also heard from the head of cease-fire, the ceasefire program. this as the biggest threat now is retaliatory shootings. and so that is where they are focused at this point. but again, the identity of the one person who was shot and killed last night in oakland is 18 year-old ma (vo) at wells fargo, direct deposits come up to two days early with early pay day. what if everything came two days early?

waves out there. but other than that, mostly clear skies tonight, chilly inland valleys. and then we do have a slight chance of rain over the weekend. a much cooler forecast once we get past friday.

to be a whole lot between maybe a 10th and quarter of an inch. so not a huge impact system but might be a little more rain for us as we head towards the weekend at notice. temperatures while air warming through the week we'll start to ramp down as we get into the weekend. regardless of whether we get that rain in there or not. stay with us, everyone. we'll be right back. of >> welcome back.
