MODESTO, Calif. (AP) – Police say two people are dead and another is seriously injured after a shooting at a Modesto market.

Sgt. Rick Armendariz says officers arrived at V & V Oriental Market around 2 p.m. Tuesday and found a man dead inside the store. Two injured women were taken to a nearby hospital, where one later died.

Armendariz tells the Modesto Bee that the surviving woman — in her late teens or 20s — remains in critical condition.

Police have not identified the victims. They say the man was in his 50s and the deceased woman was in her late 40s or 50s.

Armendariz says police stopped a green Honda SUV in Ceres an hour after the shooting, believing the vehicle was involved in the incident. He says officers are questioning the SUV’s three male passengers.

    Crime in America lives on , glad it was in Modesto. Gun don’t kill its the bullets that due the damage , now lets see people kill not guns , . Can we swallow bullets and spit them out and kill ? Can guns kill without a person handling it ? We have laws about people that have guns in some states . Now we need laws that say guns need a permit to be in the hands of people. Glad it was in Modesto.

    Nevermind, it was V & V Asian Market

  • Plain Facts

    Soon, Modesto will have “gangs” as city council members as the town cannot protect itself anymore. At one time, this was a nice town, but the gangs/thugs have taken over, much like Stockton…what a shame.

  • johnny

    it was most likely some low life wannabe gangsters.. we need to really get tough on these punks deport the ones we can and G/A/S the rest that stands for Gang Assination Squad…. lets get rid of the problems… and punks

  • Chris Markel

    modesto was never a nice town

  • white pride

    yes I agree to many immigrants and gangsters…

  • Skip

    Damm, another crime in my city. I wish these punks would leave our city, we all have enough problems here, so LEAVE wannabe gangsters and don’t come back. You people have cost this city so much money, like right now, our city fire department is send out our Truck company to this shooting scene to take pictures from high above and if Truck 1 is needed to a major fire, well someone or something will be lost. So, again, take your crime back to your counties…….

  • killer

  • kill all loser

    just kill people in public and make a statement to the losers in life!!!!

  • Skip

  • MODESTO

    TO TERMITE, HOW CAN YOU SAY THAT YOUR GLAD ITS IN MODESTO, YOU SHOULDN’T BE GLAD THAT THIS HAPPEN IN ANY CITY YOUR A HEARTLESS HUMAN BEING..FIRST OF ALL I LIVE IN MODESTO AND I KNOW THE PEOPLE WHO GOT KILLED AND THE DAUGHTER WHO IS DISABLE WAS THERE AND GOT SHOT..SOME PEOPLE HAVE NO HEART NOT ANYONE

  • joe

    ok corral? More like little Mexico, Dam Roaches

  • Koun

    I agree that Modesto is no longer the place it used to be and that a lot needs to be done to clean the place up, but to the people who come in here with nothing to do but talk smack, you all need to get a life. Termite, you are ridiculous. First thing, learn some proper English. You sound just like the people who would do this sort of thing. Are you complaining about gun control laws and putting the blame on ammunition? Sure beats the point of having a gun when you can’t shoot anything out of it don’t you think? Just FYI, the people who go around robbing and killing people with guns probably stole them in the first place so no firearms permit is going to stop them. I personally knew the victims and this is indeed a sad day.

    I live in Stockton pretty much halve of my life. I came here in 1990, and the city was peaceful, and less crime than there was today.It was more racist then,which was majority coming from white people, because of more minority moving in, which = change, but overall, it was nice city. Am I happy that Stockton is now diverse? Of coarse! Am I happy for what it has become now? NO! So I can see where certain people are coming from when they say “It wasn’t always like this in (Modesto)”, because 9-10 it probably wasn’t.

  • gaby velasquez

    Ok being racist is really going to solve what happened to these people and to others who lost loved ones to stupid s@#$ like this. Grow the hell up if your so dam miserable about the world being more than one color then go dig a hole a bury yourself in it cause the world is a lot of colors buddy!!!!

  • jerryg

  • THEWhiteNinja

    Ninja Skills will save you!!

  • sheri

    I pray for this family, bless them and help them through this storm.

  • Left for a reason

    The racist comments and inability to write properly or make insightful comments are some of the reasons why Modesto can only go so far nowadays – let’s not blame it on the minorities. Plus, keep in mind that some of the most notorious crimes from Modesto were from the affluent white community.  If you’re serious about improving Modesto, please start by getting an education. In the meantime, no one deserves to have their lives taken from them. My thoughts and prayers are with the family’s loved ones.
