Medics took the man to the hospital, but he was later pronounced dead.
"It's scary because it's next to home -- literally in my backyard. I'm not OK with it; it's very stupid, I feel sorry for the family," said a nearby resident. "I have children in my backyard. It could've went the wrong way."
Investigators believe a small party was going on at the home. At some point just as the party was breaking up, the man got involved in some sort of dispute and was shot.
No suspects have been identified by authorities.
Anyone with more information about the incident is asked to call detectives at (916) 874-5115.
