Two Children Shot Inside Berkeley Home

A few days after a Vallejo toddler was shot while sleeping in her parents' bed, Berkeley played host to another kids-meet-gunfire incident. Two children aged 3 and 6 were shot inside their home at around 5 a.m. this morning on the 1500 block of Oregon Street. Their wounds, thankfully, were not life-threatening. According to the Chronicle, "responding officers found a home on the block had been hit by multiple bullets." Police do not suspect that the shooting was random. Anyone with information about the shooting is urged to call the Berkeley Police Department homicide unit at 510-981-5741 or 510-981-5900. For those who want anonymity, please call the Bay Area Crime Stoppers Tip Line at 800-222-8477.
