1 Killed, Several Hurt In Drive-By Shooting In Vallejo

VALLEJO (CBS SF) -- One person was killed and as many as seven others injured in a mass shooting in Vallejo late Saturday night, police said.

According to a preliminary investigation, a group of young adults from South San Francisco were in four cars heading to Vallejo for a party, Vallejo police said.

Three other victims from the same incident arrived at area hospitals on their own, police said.
