Santa Rosa Police are still looking for the suspect of a shooting that occurred early Sunday morning.

The incident occurred while two groups of people were arguing in the parking lot at Mendocino and Elliott Avenues. The situation escalated when one person pulled a gun and shot a man in the chest. The suspect fled the area after the shooting. The only description offered of the suspect is that he was Hispanic. The victim, a man in his 20s, is in critical but stable condition. The motive remains under investigation as the two do not know each other but police say it doesn’t appear to be gang related.
