CLOSE TO HOME: Blue City Mayor’s home pierced by bullet while she slept

From Fox News: A California mayor’s home was struck by gunfire over the weekend during a nearby shooting that police believe was gang-related, according to Stockton Mayor Christina Fugazi’s office.

Authorities told Fox News Digital it does not appear to be a targeted or politically motivated incident.

A spokesperson for the Stockton Police Department said officers responded just before 2 a.m. on Oct. 18 after reports of gunfire in the area. A 17-year-old and an 18-year-old were both found to have non-life-threatening gunshot wounds. Detectives later determined that a bullet from the same shooting hit a nearby home, identified as the mayor’s residence.

Police also confirmed that no arrests have been made and the case remains under investigation.


Fugazi said she and her husband heard the gunfire during the night, but didn’t realize until later that morning that their home had been struck… specifically, their own bedroom window.

“This could have killed somebody in my household, even myself,” she said.

“This shooting is a reminder that none of us are immune from the impacts of crime, regardless of our position or title,” Fugazi said in a statement.
