A Sacramento man was killed Nov. 24 after an unknown suspect shot at his vehicle while he was driving near Monterey Street and Leavesley Road.
According to Gilroy Police, the suspect shot at the vehicle “multiple times” between 5:45-6:15pm and struck the 43-year-old man and another occupant.

The man’s name has not been released pending notification of next of kin.
