The Sacramento Police Department announced Friday the arrest of five suspects, including a teenager, on suspicion of gunning down an 18-year-old man in June at an Upper Land Park affordable housing complex.

Officers were called just before noon June 23 to the 2700 block of Fifth Street at the Marina Vista housing complex bordering Seavey Circle, the Police Department said. A man later identified as Daani Partridge was struck by gunfire in between two apartment buildings and later died.

Investigators led an operation Wednesday in which they arrested the homicide suspects and two others on non-homicide charges. Those arrested on suspicion of homicide were a 17-year-old boy, Calvin Warr, 18, Tashion Brown, 18, Romell Brooks, 19, and Khamari Stroman, 19, police said. All five are Sacramento residents, police said.

A motive behind the shooting was not immediately clear. Officer Anthony Gamble, a Police Department spokesman, said the incident is still under investigation.

Police also during the investigation arrested a 48-year-old Sacramento man on suspicion of misdemeanors and on suspicion of being a felon in possession of a firearm, according to online booking records.

Another Sacramento man was arrested on suspicion of a parole violation, police said.

The four men arrested on suspicion of homicide are scheduled to appear for their arraignment Friday afternoon in Sacramento Superior Court, according to the online jail log.
