[News] Two victims identified in Sacramento mass shooting that left six dead



Two victims have been identified among the six people that were killed in a mass shooting in downtown Sacramento early Sunday morning, April 3.

Sergio Harris, a 38-year-old married dad of two daughters, and DeVazia Turner, a 29-year-old man, were shot dead alongside four others when gunshots erupted around 2 a.m. as crowds emptied out of the capital city’s bars and nightclubs.

12 others were wounded in the shooting.

It is now believed that at least two shooters opened fire, cops said.

The suspects remained at large as of early Monday morning, April 4.

Police have requested the public’s help in identifying the shooters.

Sergio Harris’ father confirmed to ABC10 that his son was one of the victims.

Harris was “fun to be around, liked to party, have fun, [and was] smiling all the time,” his mother, Pamela Harris told the outlet.

She said: “I have a child that’s laying out there, and I want some answers. I just want some answers from somebody.”
