With three dead, including the shooting suspect, and a Harbor Police officer hospitalized with a gunshot wound, San Diego’s homicide unit provided details of the department’s criminal investigation of the broad-daylight killings.
SDPD Lt. Jud Campbell spoke to the media at 2:30 p.m. Wednesday near the intersection of Juniper Street and Kettner Boulevard, where a 26-year-old man was killed when two Harbor Police officers returned fire after their colleague, who did not discharge his weapon, was hit by a bullet in the thigh.
Campbell said the two victims, a 39-year-old man and a woman, 31, were inside a car when they were shot at around 8:22 a.m. Arriving officers pulled them both out of the vehicle but were unable to save them with CPR.
With it being so early in the investigation, there were many details Campbell declined to divulge.
However, “I will say this: This was not a random attack. We do believe this was targeted,” Campbell said.
