DUBLIN — An Alameda County Sheriff’s deputy was on the run Wednesday morning after allegedly fatally shooting a married couple inside a Dublin home, authorities said.
Alameda County Sheriff’s Office spokesman Lt. Ray Kelly confirmed Dublin police were called to the 3100 block of Colebrook Lane about 12:45 a.m., where a man and a woman were found shot to death.
They were not identified immediately.
Kelly said Deputy Devin Williams Jr., 24, of Stockton, is considered a suspect and authorities are searching for him. He has worked at the sheriff’s office for a year and was assigned to the courts division. The double homicide occurred hours after Williams had worked a shift at an Oakland courthouse, according to Kelly.
Kelly said the sheriff’s office and Dublin police would discuss the incident at a press conference later Wednesday. State employment records show Williams worked as an officer with the Stockton Police Department from March 2020 to January 2021. He joined the Alameda County Sheriff’s Office in September 2021.
Police have not recovered the firearm used in the shooting and Williams is considered “armed and dangerous.”
“Right now he remains at large which is our biggest concern,” Kelly said around 9:30 a.m.
