A man was fatally shot near Top Dog hot dog dining establishment in Berkeley last night. According to the Oakland Tribune, "[t]he name of the man in his late 20s was not immediately available from police, who said he is not a UC Berkeley student." (Well, thank God. Because that would have been upsetting.) It seems that the victim and the shooter were having a heated debated just before the murder. Then after getting shot, the young man staggered into a "multi-unit apartment building parking lot east of the Top Dog" (on Durant Avenue and Bowditch Street), fell into a heap, and died.

Another unidentified man was also shot. He was taken to Highland Hospital in Oakland and is expected to live. Hopefully. Oh, and no arrests have been made.
