Police arrested an Oakland man on suspicion of shooting a male victim in a quiet southwest Morgan Hill neighborhood July 25, according to a press release. Robert Johnson, 24, was arrested Aug. 4 by Morgan Hill police officers in Oakland, with the assistance of Alameda County Probation, police said. Johnson was booked on suspicion of attempted homicide and robbery. About 8 p.m. July 25, MHPD officers responded to a call reporting a single shot fired in the area of the 15000 block of La Alameda Drive, authorities said. Police arrived and found the victim, also an Oakland man, suffering from a single gunshot wound to the stomach. The victim was airlifted to an area hospital for treatment for the wound which was not life-threatening, police said. The suspect and victim knew each other and were involved in a dispute before the shooting, police said. After the single gunshot was fired, the suspect—later identified as Johnson—fled the scene in a Toyota Camry, according to authorities. Anyone with information about this incident can call MHPD at (408) 779-2101 or the anonymous tip line at (408) 947-7867.
