No arrests have been made in connection with a series of three shootings that occurred in less than 90 minutes in Oakland on Thursday night, injuring six people, police said today.

The outbreak of violence began around 8:30 p.m., when three men were shot in the 1000 block of 89th Avenue, police Officer Jason Scott said.

A second shooting occurred at 9:47 p.m. in the 2200 block of 98th Avenue, injuring two men.

Only minutes later, at 9:51 p.m., one man was shot in the 7100 block of International Boulevard, Scott said.

No injuries suffered by any of the victims in the shootings are considered life-threatening.
