When police arrived on the scene, they found a man in his 30s suffering from multiple gunshot wounds to his upper torso, according to the Sheriff’s Department. The man, who has not been identified, died at the scene.

Officers later identified a vehicle meeting the description of the earlier report and attempted to pull it over, KCBS-TV Channel 2 reported. The vehicle sped away from authorities, resulting in a short chase before the vehicle’s occupants were apprehended, the station reported.

No information was immediately available on the motive for the shooting, or whether the suspects knew the victim. A spokesperson at the Sheriff’s Department didn’t have information on the charges the four men were facing.
