Victim Identified In Elk Grove Shooting

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) -- The Sacramento County Coroner's Office has released the name of a 65-year-old man who was shot and killed as he and another man walked on a sidewalk along a busy roadway in the Sacramento suburb of Elk Grove.

Authorities say Surinder Singh was pronounced dead at the scene after he and the second man were shot on East Stockton Boulevard around 4:30 p.m. Friday.

The Sacramento Bee reports the two men were found by police lying on the sidewalk after a passing motorist called dispatchers.

The name or the current condition of the second man has not been released, but police said Friday he was hospitalized in critical condition.

No arrests have been made, and officials have not released a motive for the shootings.
