How to resolve AdBlock issue? CLEARLAKE OAKS, Calif. – One person was flown to an out-of-area hospital on Saturday night after being shot during an incident in Clearlake Oaks.
The shooting was first reported minutes before 7 p.m. at a residence in the 13000 block of Third Street, according to radio reports.
Northshore Fire, Cal Fire and sheriff's deputies responded to the location on a report of a gunshot victim. Dispatch indicated that it was not known at that time where the shooter was.
Minutes later, firefighters reported that they had found a shooting victim in a vehicle at Highway 20 and High Valley Road.
Shortly afterward it was later determined that the person in the vehicle – who was wounded in the neck – was the only shooting victim from the Third Street incident, according to reports from the scene.
The victim was transported by Northshore Fire ambulance to a landing zone at Orchard Shores Homeowners Association, where a REACH air ambulance responded to pick up the patient, reports indicated.
REACH indicated over the air that they were taking the victim to Vacaville Medical Center rather than Santa Rosa Memorial Hospital due to weather issues.
Authorities were looking for the shooter early Saturday evening. One report over the air stated that the male subject responsible for the shooting was wearing a gorilla mask, a black shirt and black pants, but his location was not known.
More information will be posted as it becomes available.
