Hospitals with life threatening injuries. All of the victims were males, ages unknown. I asked police if the victims were sitting inside the car at the time of the shooting. They say its too early to tell. It is also unclear if this was a drive by or if the shooter or shooters were on foot. No suspect description at this time.

Company not affiliated with the utility. We will bring in tom baker to get us up to speed. Reporter it was not pg es fault. It was an independent Third Party Contractor working on a construction project. I want to go right to the video tape so you can see the pictures. The company is called anvil builders and they dug into three lines that constitute a 12,000volt line and took out all three of those cables to connect two substations together causing this big outage.
