Police Identify Man Killed In Hayward Shooting

HAYWARD (CBS SF) -- Hayward police have identified the 65-year-old man who was fatally shot at his Fairway Park home Sunday morning as Amador Carrera.

Police received several reports around 8 a.m. Sunday of gunshots in the area of the 100 block of Saint Andrews Street. Responding officers found Carrera shot dead in his driveway, police said.

His wife, 59, had also been shot and was taken to a hospital for treatment. Police Lt. Roger Keener said that she is expected to recover from her serious injuries.

The shooter fled before police arrived, and a search of the neighborhood failed to locate a suspect.

Keener said that a motive has not yet been identified.

Anyone with information about the shooting is asked to contact Inspector J.P. Guimareas at (510) 293-7080 or Inspector Mike Woods at (510) 293-7035.
