Hollister Police are investigating two shootings reported near the city’s downtown in recent days—including one that resulted in injuries to a victim. 

About 10:30pm Feb. 1, Hollister Police officers responded to a report of a shooting on the 100 block of McCray Street, according to the Hollister Police Department. 

The victim told investigating officers that they were walking their dog when three subjects approached them, according to police. The group reportedly asked the victim if they were gang members.

On Feb. 7, police released a photo from a nearby surveillance camera that may depict the three suspects. Anyone with information about the incident can call Hollister Police at 831.636.4331.
