Two shootings in Santa Rosa over the Labor Day holiday weekend were being investigated by the Santa Rosa Police Department, police said Monday.
The first shooting took place at about 2:15 a.m. Saturday near Seventh Street and Humboldt Street when an argument was overheard by multiple witnesses who told police they then heard a single gunshot.
Police said a bullet shell casing was found on Humboldt Street, but no suspect was located, nor was any victim.
The second shooting happened early Monday morning, Labor Day, in front of El Infierno Cantina, at 120 Fifth St.
Witnesses told police that two people had fired multiple gunshots into the ground at about 1:30 a.m. and left in an older-model dark blue sedan. They were described as wearing yellow sweatshirts, blue jeans, boots and white cowboy hats.
Shell casings in that shooting were allegedly found nearby on Wilson Street, but, again, no suspects were located, police said.
Nobody was reported injured in either shooting.
Anyone with information about the shootings was asked to contact the Santa Rosa Police Department Violent Crimes Investigations Team tipline at 707-543-3590. Anonymous tips can be submitted at www.srcity.org/CrimeTips.
A reward of $2,500 in both shootings is being offered for information that leads to the identification and arrests of the person or persons responsible for either incident.
The reward is being offered by the Business Alliance of Sonoma County Community Engagement and Safety Rewards Fund.
