On March 14, 2023, at approximately 7:51 pm, the Antioch Police Department’s Communications Center received a call from the Brentwood Police Department advising there was someone shot on Lone Tree Way at the intersection of Highway 4 on the border of Brentwood, near Lowe’s and Home Depot (not where Lone Tree Way turns into ‘A’ Street).

Antioch Police Officers responded and located one victim suffering from a gunshot wound. The victim was transported to a local hospital and is expected to survive.

Through investigation, officers learned this was a road rage incident between two unrelated vehicles. One of the occupants of a vehicle involved in the road rage shot at the other vehicle. In doing so, they shot an unrelated occupant of a vehicle nearby.

According to Mike Burkholder of ContraCosta.news, the victim is a female. According to a video posted on Twitter by ThePress.net by reporter Jeff Weisinger she is 18 years old, was driving a Honda Accord, the three other passengers all under age 18 were “all OK” and someone in a Dodge Charger tried to shoot at an SUV.
