The Sunday mass shooting in Sacramento, California, was likely the result of a confrontation between rivals that left innocent bystanders dead, according to new information from law enforcement sources. Five shooters are believed to have opened fire during the brawl, killing six people and leaving more than 100 shell casings at the scene. Two young women, three fathers, and a well-known unhoused woman in the community were killed, and 12 others were hospitalized. Police have since made two arrests—brothers Smiley Martin and Dandrae Martin. A third man was arrested after being seen carrying a gun after the shooting that was not actually fired. Details around the chain of events that resulted in mass death Sunday morning are still being sorted out by law enforcement officers, who are interviewing dozens of witnesses, reviewing camera footage, and processing the scene of the crime.
