A Vallejo man was shot and killed Sunday by an off-duty Richmond police officer in what residents say may have been a parking dispute.
VALLEJO, CA (KPIX 5) — A Vallejo man was shot and killed Sunday by an off-duty Richmond police officer in what residents say may have been a dispute over a parking space. The community Monday was questioning whether the shooter got special treatment because of his position.
Family, friends and community members gathered at the gas station on Fairgrounds Drive where the shooting occurred and, with little information coming from either Vallejo or Richmond police, residents were left with only questions, like why did the off-duty police officer begin shooting? And why was he not detained afterwards?
