Victim Identified In Richmond Fatal Shooting
RICHMOND (BCN) -- A man fatally shot in Richmond early Friday morning has been identified by the Contra Costa County coroner's office as 23-year-old San Carlos resident Mariee Beardon.
Officers responded at 12:52 a.m. Friday to two ShotSpotter gunshot detection system activations around the intersections of South 42nd Street and Center Avenue and South 43rd Street and Florida Avenue, but did not find evidence of a shooting there, Richmond police said.
