Police: Rival gangs collided in Sacramento shootout

At least five gunmen were involved in a deadly shooting early Sunday morning in downtown Sacramento. Police say it now appears the incident was a shootout between rival gangs. More than 100 gunshots echoed through the streets in California’s capital as bars closed around 2 a.m. Six people died from gunshot wounds. Twelve others were wounded.

Have there been any arrests? As of Wednesday evening, authorities had arrested only two men in connection with the shooting. They are siblings in their late 20s. At the moment, they only face firearms charges. Authorities credited witnesses who contributed nearly 200 videos, photos, and tips with helping the investigation, which is ongoing.
