At least three people were shot and wounded after perhaps as many as 10 shots were reportedly fired in the arcade section at Dave & Busters restaurant during a private event in Concord Sunday night.
Concord police, in a brief social media post made Monday morning, said ultimately four people were treated for gunshot wounds.
The gunfire was reported at approximately 10:50 p.m.
Initial reports of at least one person hit appeared to be unfounded, with possible injuries suffered in the scramble to get away from the reported gunman. As patrons filed out of the restaurant, a person reported they’d been hit in the leg, although that report could not be substantiated. Two other people reportedly walked into Sutter Delta Hospital in Antioch later in the evening to report gunshot wounds of undetermined severity.
A sizable police presence is currently in the area of the restaurant and the adjacent City Sports, where one person was reported to have sheltered after the initial panic. There are reports that the restaurant had been closed for a private function, possibly a wedding, when gunfire erupted.
Witnesses report a black male suspect, 5′ 7″-tall, thin build, in a grey hoodie, armed with a black pistol, allegedly did the shooting. A dark SUV, described as possibly a Land Rover or Range Rover was spotted leaving the area after the gunfire erupted.
Dave & Busters Bar sounds like it attracts really bad people. I went to their website and I was in shock to find this posted within their dress code.
“Sunglasses may not be worn in premises”.
“We do not allow clothing which exposes underwear or excessive portions of the skin, which may be viewed as inappropriate in a family environment”.
“No perceived evidence of gang affiliation”.
This was a private event.
Yes, it was a private event but it still attracted the “really bad people”.
traffic pucker your server again???
That initial rush gets us every time! It’s like the readership is waiting for us…
A worthy competitor is reporting four shot. And, I passed out two more training manuals to WCPD last night. 108RS
Literally the second paragraf
A lot of this confusion could be averted if people just learned how to read CLOSELY. And what does WCPD have to do with any of this? Please stay on topic.
Sorry if I missed something, very busy at work. Because it will happen in WC next time and I’m getting them better prepared. 108RS
Isn’t this the second time something like this has happened in 2 weeks there?
I don’t think we’re going to be visiting it anytime soon.
(Though the rest of that Veranda shopping center is gorgeous with the water fountains seating areas etc. Good professional security too)
A little out of 24/680 area of reporting, but I pass through there often:
A shooting on Interstate 580 in Livermore on Sunday took the windows out on a white pickup truck, witnesses reported.
Yi haw. 108RS
They covered it yesterday – when it happened. It’s right there on the site!!!
