  • Oakland, Monday: Two shootings that happened within minutes of one another--with one proving fatal--are being investigated by the fuzz. Last night at around 6 p.m., "a young man was shot and injured at the corner of Whitney and 59th Streets in a drive-by attack," according to the Chron. A "lime-green tuck" carrying the suspected shooter(s) then fled the scene. The victim was taken to a nearby hospital. His condition is "unknown."

    Then about 10 minutes later, an unidentified man was shot and killed "3100 block of High Street." It goes without saying that no arrests have been made in either case.

  • Sunset, Sunday: The victim in Sunday's fratricide incident has been identified as as 48-year-old Isam Bajjalieh. He was arguing with his older brother, Anton Bajjalieh, 53, before the fight turned fatal. Police have yet to disclose the nature of the argument.
