Four men were arrested yesterday after shootings in three locations east of Interstate 805 that began shortly after noon. At least 20 shots were fired, but no one was hit, said Bernard Gonzales, a Chula Vista police spokesman.
The incident began at a home on Berry Creek Court, east of Interstate 805 near Olympic Parkway. Residents inside called police about 12:30 p.m. and said people in a red Chevrolet Suburban drove by and fired several shots at the house.
Gonzales said a patrol officer responding to the call saw the Suburban and tried to make a traffic stop, but the driver ignored the lights and siren. Both vehicles ended up in the Sunbow Plaza shopping center off Medical Center Drive.
Gonzales said two men got out of the Suburban and fired at least 16 shots at the patrol car, hitting it at least twice, in the windshield and roof |
