Police seek suspects in shooting of San Bernardino man

Redlands Police are looking for two suspects who confronted a 19-year-old San Bernardino man before shooting and injuring him Friday night.

The victim was walking alone in the area of Brockton Avenue and Tribune Street at about 8 p.m. Friday, Feb. 22, when he was confronted by two Hispanic males who had been hanging out in the area, witnesses said.

The men demanded to know what gang the victim was associated with. When he responded that he was not involved in a gang and walked away the suspects opened fire. Neighbors in the area reported hearing six to eight gunshots.

Witnesses said the men fled in a tan or gray four-door Honda Accord with an air scoop on the trunk.

The victim, who suffered a gunshot wound to his leg, was driven to the hospital by a friend.

Anyone with information is asked to call Redlands Police Dispatch at (909) 798-7681.
