Ashooting in downtown Sacramento early Sunday left six people dead and at least 10 wounded, police said.
Authorities did not offer many details, except to say shooting occurred in the vicinity of a nightclub.
Video posted on social media showed people running through the street as the sound of gunfire could be heard.
Sacramento Police Chief Kathy Lester said the shooting occurred around 2 a.m. and police don’t know whether one or more suspects were involved.
This is “a very complex and complicated scene,” she told The Associated Press as she asked for the public’s help.
Numerous ambulances were sent to the scene, and officials said a “large police presence will remain and the scene remains active.”

A PROHIBITED PERSON IN POSSESSION OF A FIREARM.
Thus, every single gun law (background checks, waiting period, mag limits, and a host more) does not matter or apply. Prohibited persons don't follow gun laws enacted for honest and responsible gun owners.
I'm interested to know if Mr. Martin might have been at a bar while packing a heater, might have been drinking while packing, (offenses in Cali), and just how and from whom did he obtain his firearm and his ammo?
It would be interesting and instructive to add up just how many local, state, and fed gun laws were (allegedly) violated.
