San Leandro homicide suspect sought; Sheriff's Office releases surveillance images
The Alameda County Sheriff's Office has released images of a man who is a suspect in a homicide that occurred in unincorporated San Leandro last month.
A woman was killed and a man was left wounded after being shot in the roadway of East 14th Street near 151st Avenue on Feb. 9.
Sheriff's deputies, officers from the San Leandro Police Department and medical services arrived around 9:47 p.m. to find a 47-year-old male and a 40-year-old woman with a mobility impairment suffering from gunshot wounds.
Both victims received emergency medical assistance at the scene and were then transported to a local area hospital, but the woman succumbed to her injuries and did not survive.
