Vallejo police found a man fatally shot on the 1300 block of N. Camino Alto Monday morning, marking the city’s fourth homicide this year.

Police and firefighters responded to a report of an unresponsive individual shortly after 6 a.m., according to Vallejo police spokesperson Sgt. Rashad Hollis. The call originally came in around 4:02 a.m. as a shots-fired call, according to dispatch audio. Officials arrived at the scene to discover a man suffering from at least one gunshot wound, Hollis said. Firefighters pronounced him dead at the scene.

“The circumstances regarding this shooting are being investigated as we speak,” Hollis told Open Vallejo. “We have no one in custody as of yet.”

The Vallejo Police Department and the Solano County Coroner’s Office declined to release the name of the victim, citing the need to notify next of kin.
