A man shot and killed a woman at Larkey Park in Walnut Creek Thursday, calmly walking to his car before driving away, according to witnesses.

This is a breaking situation and details are muddy, but initial reports are that the man pulled up in a silver sedan, parked in the 1900 block of 1st Avenue and fired at least four shots at a woman in the area, hitting her at least three times. The murder was reported at approximately 1:30 p.m.

A spokesman for the Walnut Creek Police said the department received a phone call that a female had been shot on the street and sent several officers to the scene.

Officers arrived on scene two minutes after the first call and found a woman down with multiple gunshot wounds. Officers and medical teams provided life saving measures but the victim did not survive her injuries. The nearby Lindsay Wildlife Experience initiated its shelter in place protocol, volunteers said, with police later walking workers to their cars.

Officers and detectives are actively working the scene and attempting to identify the responsible. There are no indicators that the public is in danger, according to police.

If anyone has information regarding this crime please call Walnut Creek Police Department immediately at 925-935-6400 or Detective Greg Leonard at 925-256-3523.

The gunman reportedly got back into his car after the shooting and left in the direction of 1st Avenue. He was described as a white male, early to mid 30s, 6’3″ tall, 160-200 pounds, wearing a baseball cap and faded red shirt. He was last seen driving a silver-colored Chevy sedan with possible partial plates of TRC443. NOTE: This description may change as additional witnesses are interviewed.

The scene of the shooting has been sealed off by police as investigators and crime scene specialists converge on the area.

We’ll post additional details as we get them.

Does the shooter have memory of his deed or was he mind controlled and this the latest Qabala ritual?
(Blacks too are being mind fr*cked into murder roles both of which explains the spike in gun murders in the last 10 years!) How else can “THEY”,[‘communist’ supremacists], disarm us?
