On Friday afternoon, the ABC10 television station in Sacramento was struck by multiple gunshots. The incident occurred just after 1:30 p.m. at the station's building on Broadway near 3rd Street. Several bullets penetrated a window in the building's lobby area, which was occupied at the time; fortunately, no injuries were reported.

Sacramento Police Department spokesperson Officer Anthony Gamble stated that the motive behind the shooting remains unclear. He mentioned that a vehicle was involved in the incident but did not provide further details.
