In all three people were killed and three others was injured when a gunman opened fire on the SUV the six were sitting in around 1:20 a.m. Sunday.
Police identified the victims as 16-year-old Leneasha Northington of San Leandro, 19-year-old Shanice Kiel of San Francisco and 23-year-old Joshua Alford of Oakland. The three who were hurt have not been identified.
Witnesses said a party that was advertised on-line and may not have had the proper permits, just let out when at least two gunmen walked up to their vehicle and opened fire.
A green SUV sat in the parking lot Sunday riddled with bullets. Sgt. Doug Calcagno with the San Leandro police department said it was not clear if the gunmen attended the party.
The Oakland Tribune said the party was for tattoo enthusiasts.
