Sunday’s downtown shooting occurred about two blocks north of the California State Capitol building and about four blocks east of the Golden 1 Center arena — the home of the NBA Sacramento Kings. The California State Capitol is located about three blocks south of the crime scene.

According to Sacramento Police Chief Kathy Lester, investigators did not initially connect the shooting to a particular venue or event. She also said there was a fight immediately prior to the shooting, and that there were multiple shooters.
