Man shot, killed outside light rail station in North Sacramento. Police looking for suspects

A man who was gunned down near a North Sacramento light rail station Sunday died, according to police.

Officers were called just after 2 p.m. to the 400 block of Arden Way at Del Paso Boulevard for reports of a person shot. The suspects fled the scene that is also near the Sacramento Police and Sheriff’s Memorial, according to archived audio dispatches reviewed by The Sacramento Bee.

In an update, police said the man died. No other information about the shooting, including a suspect description or motive, was shared.

The identity of the man was expected to be released by the Sacramento County Coroner’s Office once relatives are notified of the man’s death.

The shooting disrupted Blue Line service for a time, as Sacramento Regional Transit implemented a bus bridge between the Alkali Flat and Marconi stations, said RT spokeswoman Devra Selenis.
