hearing two off-duty oakland firefighters were shot here outside of the gordon biersch brewery in japan town. one was killed. the crime investigations unit is still here. this happened at 9:30, and they are still here some six hours or so after this all happened here in downtown san jose. still a lot of unanswered questions. police need to know what led up to this incident here in japan town. police say the victims were attending a weekly music festival. not the restaurant but the brewery. and for some unknown reason investigators say they were shot across the street from the brewery. police detained one person after a short pursuit. they are canvassing the area at this hour to make sure there are no more suspects that may have been involved in this incident. sources tell me the firefighters were young, fresh out of the academy. this morning still few answers as to what led to the shooting. >> the details are still pretty sketchy. we don't know what led up to this altercation if there was an altercation. it appears to be a random act. we don't have a lot of details at this point. we have a lot of neighbors calling in about somebody running through the neighborhood, and we were able to detain an adult male in the vicinity so we're still investigating to see what his role is. >> reporter: and i'm told from sources that firefighters were with a larger group here with the suspect. the weekly festival. one of them off-duty was killed here in downtown san jose. we're being told by some of the responding officers they're surprised this happened in japan town, usually a very quiet, peaceful area. not last night. i'm damian trujillo. now to "today in the bay's" kris sanchez live at valley medical center. kris? >> reporter: hi there, marcus and laura. a huge tragedy for the oakland police department, but law enforcement and fire protection are a close knit group. we have seen a number of fire vehicles and police vehicles here at valley medical center where we are this morning. we know they arrived here in a mass group this morning as they were making their way here to find some comfort in being together after those two oakland firefighters were shot off-duty. as damian reported the firefighter here has very serious injuries and his fellow firefighter did not make it after the shooting last night. a san jose police officer told me that he wouldn't expect that any of the oakland firefighters were here right now would have anything to say this morning, but if that changes, we will certainly give them the opportunity. if they want the space, we will respect that wish as well. chrkris sanchez, "today in the bay." stay with us for continuing coverage. damian and kris will be tweeting us all morning long. you can also get the very latest on
