Man shot in East Bay, attempted murder suspect arrested following car chase: PD

(KRON) — One man is in the hospital recovering from multiple gunshot wounds and another man is in jail for attempted murder following a shooting on the 4800 block of Trenton Street in Oakley Tuesday morning, according to the Oakley Police Department.

Officers responded to the shooting around 3:13 a.m. and found the victim suffering from his injuries outside an Oakley home. The man was taken to a local trauma center where he is undergoing life-saving treatment, according to police.

“Alert residents in the area heard the shooting and stated they saw the suspected shooter fleeing in a dark colored Ford F-150,” Oakley PD said. 

As officers treated the victim, a Contra Costa County Sheriff’s Office Deputy spotted a Ford F-150 matching witnesses’ description of the truck used in the shooting. The deputy followed the truck until officers arrived and attempted to pull the truck over.

“The suspect vehicle initially pulled over in the area of Byron Highway and Orwood Road and then sped off; a vehicle pursuit was initiated,” Oakley PD said. “The suspect vehicle fled through Brentwood as it travelled the whole distance of Balfour Road until it got to Deer Valley Road. The suspect vehicle turned north onto Deer Valley Road, towards Antioch”

The Antioch Police Department helped Oakley PD by setting up spike strips near the intersection of Deer Valley Road and Prewett Ranch Drive. The spikes successfully stopped the truck and the driver was arrested.

The suspect was identified as 25-year-old Hayward man Tanginoa Tangi. Tangi was booked into the Martinez Detention Facility for numerous felonies, including attempted murder, shooting into an occupied vehicle, felony evading and related weapons charges. Tangi is being held on $2.08-million bail.

Detectives investigating the shooting suspect that the victim had just returned home and was getting out of his car when Tangi shot him several times.

“We are able to determine this was a targeted attack and there are no other known suspects,” Oakley PD said.
