Driver shot in neck on Hwy 4 crashes car in Pittsburg Thursday night

April 30, 2021 By Publisher 1 Comment

Doesn’t appear random

By CHP – Contra Costa

This evening at approximately 8:34pm, Contra Costa CHP was advised of a possible freeway shooting incident that occurred in the area of HWY-4 eastbound on the Railroad Avenue off-ramp. The victim (adult male in his twenties) was driving a blue 2018 Honda Accord and was the sole occupant. The victim related he did not have information regarding the suspect(s) or suspect vehicle. He was transported to John Muir Hospital for a gunshot wound but is expected to survive. This does NOT appear to be a random shooting.

According to a CBSN Bay Area report, the driver was shot in the neck and crashed his car.

This is an ongoing investigation and all the information we have at this time. Anyone with information pertaining to this incident, call Contra Costa CHP at (925)646-4980.

    Why do you give the hospital name? Now, the person trying to kill him knows where he is.
