2 killed, 1 injured in shooting at Stockton flea market: police
Two people were killed and one injured Sunday when a shooting occurred at a flea market in Stockton, according to police and the city's vice mayor.
Just before noon, officers responded to multiple reports of gunshots at the Stockton Flea Market on South El Dorado Street in the Seaport District.
Officers arrived and found two men dead at the scene and a woman in her 50s suffering from at least one gunshot wound. She was taken to the hospital and is expected to survive.
According to Vice Mayor Jason Lee, the business owners involved in the shooting appear to have acted in self-defense, he said in a Sunday night email.
"Any loss of life is serious and tragic," said Lee. "My thoughts are with everyone impacted by this incident, including the families, employees, patrons, and members of our community who were present."
Police are still investigating, the department said.
