OAKLAND — A 20-year-old man was in stable condition after he was shot multiple times Tuesday night inside his Eastlake district home, authorities said.
The shooting happened about 9:30 p.m. inside the home in the 1200 block of East 12th Street, an area that is a mixture of residences and small businesses.
Authorities said it appears the man got into an argument with another man inside the home that ended with him being shot at least three times.
Police are trying to determine how the victim knew the suspect and what the dispute was about. The suspect fled the scene before police arrived and was still being sought Wednesday.
The wounded man got a ride to a hospital from another person before police got to the home, authorities said. The man underwent surgery at the hospital and investigators have yet to interview him.
Police and Crime Stoppers of Oakland are offering up to $5,000 in reward money for information leading to the arrest of the shooter. Anyone with information may call police at 510-238-3426 or Crime Stoppers at 510-777-8572.
