Police are investigating a double shooting that took place early Monday morning at the Grand Cru bar in downtown Turlock.

Officers responded to the bar at 130 W. Main St. at about 1:50 a.m. for reports of a person shot.

“As an officer was approaching the back parking lot of the business, they were flagged down by someone who was with one of the victims,” Turlock Police spokeswoman Deandra Wiley said in an email.

She said the victim was sitting in a vehicle suffering from at least one gunshot wound. The officer provided medical aid until an ambulance and firefighters arrived at the scene.

The victim was taken to a local hospital, while a second gunshot victim showed up at a hospital around the same time. Wiley said both victims, who are men, had injuries that are not life-threatening, according to preliminary reports.

She said investigators believe both were shot by the same person but had no details about the suspect other than the he or she remains at large. One of the victims was shot outside in front of the bar but Wiley did not know where the other victim was shot.

She did not have any details about a motive for the shooting or how many people were at the bar at the time.

Witnesses or anyone with information about the shooting is encouraged to call Turlock police Officer Henry Hernandez at 209-668-6534.
