Confusing Incident near Rancho Laguna Park
The Contra Costa County Sheriff's office reported that on Tuesday April 5 at 4:45 p.m. a suspicious circumstance happened at 30 Quail Crossing, opposite Rancho Laguna Park. An 18-year-old male who was working on the property called out to his co-workers and said he had been shot in the belly. They called for help, and the injured man was air-lifted to John Muir Hospital where he underwent surgery. Police conducted a search on land and in the air but could not locate a suspect. Doctors who operated on the young man could not find any trace of a bullet, and could not qualify the wound as a gun injury. According to Sheriff's staff, no one heard a gun shot and at this point it cannot be confirmed that a shooting took place. The investigation into the incident continues.
