2 vehicles believed to be used in Stockton mass shooting seized, deputies say

SAN JOAQUIN COUNTY, Calif. -- Two cars believed to be used in the Stockton mass shooting last November have been seized by the San Joaquin County Sheriff's Office.

Deputies say the vehicles have been processed for evidence and are awaiting results of DNA comparison.

The Sheriff's Office released surveillance images last month of what appeared to be a white and silver sedan, which are similar to the two cars that were seized.

In total, 17 people were shot at a child's birthday party and four people were killed in the shooting on November 29. The victims killed were ages 8, 9, 14 and 21. Investigators believe it was a targeted attack.

In early December, Sheriff Patrick Withrow said it could be weeks or months before any suspects are identified in the shooting. The only thing authorities will say about the suspects is that they were dressed in all black and their faces were covered.

"We know that there were known gang members at this birthday party, but we do not know whether that was the reason or the motive of this shooting, so we're going to take our time and gather all our information and process it," Withrow said in December.'

Withrow said more than 50 casings were found at the scene, fired from at least five different weapons.

No suspects have been arrested.
