Two separate shootings shut down Interstate 80: CHP

Two separate shootings on Interstate 80 shut down Friday night traffic, California Highway Patrol said. The first happened westbound near the Bay Bridge and the second happened eastbound I-80 near the Berkeley curve, investigators said.

California Highway Patrol said one person was killed and three were injured in separate shootings on Interstate 80 overnight.

The deadly shots rang out around 2:50 a.m. on eastbound I-80 near the I-580 interchange, officials said. Two vehicles linked to the shooting left the immediate area and were found in Richmond. 

An occupant of one of the cars was struck by gunfire and pronounced dead, investigators said.

Two occupants in the second vehicle were struck by gunfire and taken to a local hospital for treatment of non-life threatening injuries, they added.

Earlier Friday night, shots were fired on the Bay Bridge near Treasure Island, and one person was hurt by flying debris, CHP said.
