On 10/16/21 at about 0010 hours the Ventura Police Command Center received a 911 call of shots being heard and a male subject down at Oak St and Thompson Blvd.
Responding officers arrived on scene to several subjects running from the area. They located two crime scenes, one to the rear of Bombay’s Bar on California St and the other in the street at Thompson Blvd and Oak St. According to witnesses the victim of the shooting was driven away in an unknown type of sedan.

At this time, we have not located the victim or any suspects in this incident. Local hospitals were checked and no one with gunshot wounds had been admitted.
