Stockton residents share details of mass shooting as videos capture chaos

A mass shooting in Stockton, California, left several people injured Saturday in the 1900 block of Lucile Avenue, near Thornton Road. According to Scanner Radio reports, at least 10 people were hurt, including a 9-year-old, 12-year-old, and 23-year-old.

In a post on X, San Joaquin County Sheriff's Office said, “The San Joaquin County Sheriff's Office is currently investigating a shooting in the 1900 block of Lucile Avenue in Stockton. Several victims have been transported to local hospitals.”

“This remains an active scene, and deputies are working to gather additional details. Information is still being confirmed and will be released as it becomes available. We will provide updates as the investigation progresses.”

Stockton Vice Mayor Jason Lee said the shooting took place at a child's birthday party.

In a Facebook post, he wrote, "Tonight, my heart is heavy in a way that's hard to put into words. As Vice Mayor of Stockton — and as someone who grew up in this community — I am devastated and angry to learn about the mass shooting at a child's birthday party. An ice cream shop should never be a place where families fear for their lives."

“Violence touched my life as a young person, and seeing our own children, parents, and neighbors go through this shakes me deeply. Stockton is my home. These are our families. This is our community. I am in contact with staff and public safety officials to understand exactly what happened, and I will be pushing for answers. Our community deserves to know the truth, and the families impacted deserve justice and every resource available to support them.”

Tonight, I'm sending my thoughts, prayers, and love to the families who are hurting, to the children who witnessed this trauma, and to everyone across our city who feels this pain. Please God, uplift our community. We don't deserve this. And we will not accept this as our norm.
