Coworker of victim killed the day before
By Peggy ChouSan, PIO, Pablo Police Department
San Pablo, CA – On Tuesday, December 30, 2025, at approximately 5:29 p.m., while addressing an unrelated call for service in the parking lot of the San Pablo Police Department, SPPD officers were approached by an adult male subject who attempted to make contact with officers. Due to a language barrier, communication was limited. Following a brief interaction, the male subject walked away, and the officer resumed addressing the original call for service.
Shortly thereafter, officers heard a single gunshot near the Police Department parking lot. Officers immediately responded and located the male subject suffering from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound. Officers rendered life-saving aid, and the male was transported to a local hospital where he remains in critical condition.
During the course of the investigation, it was determined that the male subject (44-year-old, San Pablo resident) is a person-of-interest in a homicide investigation which occurred in the City of Richmond on December 29, 2025. Following the shooting incident on 12/30/2025, Richmond PD Detectives responded to the San Pablo Police Department to process the scene and assume their investigation.
This incident remains an active investigation, and limited further information is available at this time. Anyone with information related to this incident is encouraged to contact the San Pablo Police Department at (510) 215-3150.
