Police say the ABC10 building was occupied when shots were fired into the lobby but ‘no one was injured’
Police have arrested a man suspected of shooting into the lobby of Sacramento’s ABC affiliate on Friday.
Though the shooting occurred just a day after protesters gathered outside to the station to condemn ABC’s suspension of Jimmy Kimmel’s late-night talkshow, Sacramento police said the motive in the case remained under investigation, with it not being immediately clear whether the gunfire was targeted or random.
Anibal Hernandez Santana, 64, faces counts of assault with a deadly weapon, shooting into an occupied building, and negligent discharge of a firearm after his arrest in the case, Sacramento police said in a statement early Saturday.
Shots were fired at ABC10, whose call letters are KXTV, just after 1.30pm Friday, police said. Officers spotted at least three gunshots into the window but said it was unclear whether they had been directed at the station building.
