Overview
- The Monterey County Sheriff’s Office said multiple people were killed and others injured in a shooting on Jetty Road in Moss Landing, with deputies and detectives remaining on scene.
- Authorities said the shooting occurred on Monday and that there is no active threat to the community as the investigation continues.
- California State Parks police closed Jetty Road and Moss Landing State Beach at the sheriff’s request to secure the area and support evidence collection.
- Officials have not released victim names, exact casualty totals, or a suspected motive, and at least one outlet reports a conflicting incident time that investigators have not reconciled.
- The ongoing probe will focus on identifying victims and the sequence of events, and the closures and police presence may affect access to the coastal route between Monterey and Santa Cruz in the short term.
