“We are awaiting more details on tonight’s incident from @SacPolice,” Sacramento Mayor Darrell Steinberg tweeted shortly after the shooting. “We are deeply concerned by the increase in gun violence in Sacramento and other cities during the pandemic, and have supported increasing our efforts to reach young people at risk. A gun is never the answer.”
