Sacramento police investigate suspicious death; man with gunshot wound found at motel
Detectives continue to investigate a homicide after medics responding to a call for help Wednesday found a man dead with a gunshot wound at a Sacramento motel.
At 11:25 a.m., officers were called to the Executive Inn and Suites in the 200 block of Bannon Street, just south of Richards Boulevard and east of Interstate 5 in the River District.
Medics from the Sacramento Fire Department had responded to the motel for a medical aid call and found the man dead with at least one gunshot wound, according to the Sacramento Police Department.

The Sacramento County Coroner’s Office will release the man’s name after his family has been notified.
