A 40-year-old man was wounded in Valencia Park after a possible gang-related shooting on March 7. According to the San Diego Union-Tribune, officers from the San Diego Police Department arrested two men the following day connected to the shooting.

The victim was attempting to get into his car when he was shot on San Alberto Way at approximately 9:45 p.m. Police told the Union Tribune the two men then approached the man and fired several shots using a handgun. The victim of the incident suffered gun shot wounds to his lower torso.

According to the article, while responding to the call about shots being fired, a police officer tried to pull over a Nissan that was attempting to leave the area. The Union Tribune said the driver of the vehicle led police on a short chase before he crashed into a fence. After crashing, the two men inside the car attempted to run away from authorities before police were able to arrest them.

The driver of the Nissan was taken to jail on attempted murder, failure to yield and weapons charges while the passenger was booked on drug charges, the article said.

Police told the Union Tribune the victim was transported to a hospital for his wounds and is expected to survive.

An investigation by detectives in the SDPD gang unit was launched to determine if the shooting was gang related, the source said.
