According to Lodi Police the victim is a 20 year old Hispanic male, who is also a known gang member. A police spokesperson said it is not certain if the shooting is gang related, but that it is a possibility.
According to Lodi Police, the victim was on his way to a residence in the neighborhood when he was shot multiple times. After being shot, police said the victim started to head to friends who live at a nearby apartment complex, but he collapsed in the street.
The victim was transported by helicopter to the hospital with life threatening injuries.
Police do not have a suspect name or description, but are looking for two vehicles of interest; a four-door white passenger vehicle and a brown pick up truck with a cover on the back.
Lodi Police added that this is the third in a series of gang related shootings in the past week; the first two incidents reportedly did not have victims. After the third shooting, police said there was a fourth shooting that happened in another part of town, however there were no victims.
Police said residents do not need to be concerned because the shootings appear to be crimes of opportunity where gang members spot rival gang members.
