We begin tonight with breaking news,
new information in that Friday night shooting at the Spirit
Halloween store in Fairfield that left
a pregnant woman dead and six others injured.
Now we just got an update from Fairfield Police
that a 17-year-old suspect was arrested today
and is now in custody.
KTVU crime reporter Henry Lee live tonight
in the newsroom with the very latest on this
one.
Henry?
Yeah, Mike and Claudine, this teenager
was identified with the help of a school resource
officer within hours of the mass shooting.
He was arrested today at a home in Susquehanna City,
his name has not been released because of his age
Now, Sky Fox was overhead in the aftermath of that arrest.
The Susquehanna City Police Chief confirming to me the operation
by Fairfield Police was part of this investigation
into a shooting that left the pregnant woman dead
and six other people hurt.
A suspect now under arrest in a mass shooting
at a Spirit Halloween store at the Solano Town Center in Fairfield
that left a pregnant woman dead and six other victims hurt.
Fairfield police say the shooting was the result of a targeted attack
involving a single shooter on Friday night, the day before Halloween.
Killed in the shooting was 31-year-old Constance Hodges,
who was pregnant with her fifth child.
On GoFundMe, her aunt said the tragedy has left behind
a family trying to face a pain that words can barely hold.
Constance was deeply loved,
and her absence has created an overwhelming void.
They're shooting, everyone's shooting.
I spoke to a 15-year-old girl from Vallejo
who was at the store with her sister and friend
and took this chilling cell phone video as the shooting unfolded.
We just started hearing shooting,
like at least like 10 shots went off, and then someone like...
Someone screamed that they were shooting and me and my friend and my
sister were just like hella scared like we didn't even know what to do.
The injured victims range in age from 16 to 43. Of the six hurt,
a 19 year old man remains in critical condition while the others
are expected to recover or have been released from the hospital.
My condolences go out to the families of the victims.
And everyone that was impacted that was there
that night at the town center.
Fairfield Mayor Rick Vaccaro had visited
the Spirit Store with his grandkids several weeks ago.
That type of situation is going to weigh heavy
on your mind, no doubt about it.
So I really feel like this city will come together, though.
Now, the juvenile suspect was involved,
according to Fairfield Police, in a previous shooting
at a high school last year,
but served only a few months in Juvenile Hall.
In this latest shooting at the Spirit Halloween Store,
the Solano County D.A. could consider
double murder charges because of the woman's unborn child.
Live in the newsroom, Henry Lee, KTVU, Fox 2 News.
And the victim in this case, Henry,
do you know yet if she was the intended target here?
Yeah, no word on any motive or exactly whether she
was intended or unintended.
All right.
Henry Lee, live tonight in the newsroom
with the very latest on that case out of Fairfield.
Henry, thank you.
