Two teens dead, two injured in Oceanside - The San Diego Union-Tribune
The injured victims were taken to a hospital and were expected to survive, Cosby said. Police said a motive for the shootings was not yet known. The victims were found near a memorial to two teens who had been shot to death in 2011, the lieutenant said. Officers were searching for a vehicle described as a gray or silver 2005 or 2006 gray Toyota Tacoma or Toyota Tundra with an extended cab with at least two people inside, he said. Cosby said he felt for the residents of the area, who were left reeling when Fernando Solano, 16, and Sandra Salgado, 14, were shot to death in a remote area of the park May 3, 2011. Authorities have said those slayings were street gang-related,... my heart goes out to these people, their kids, this community,” Cosby said. From 2004 to 2006, it was known as one of the city’s most dangerous areas. In 2006, Oceanside police officer Dan Bessant was shot to death during a traffic stop not far from the park. In January, an Oceanside gang member was sentenced to four years in prison in the shooting deaths of Solano and Salgado. Tyrone Blackmon, 30, pleaded guilty in December to being an accessory after the fact in the slayings. Source: www.sandiegouniontribune.com
