CHULA VISTA, Calif. (KGTV) – Police are investigating a shooting at a Chula Vista apartment complex that left one man dead and another injured early Wednesday morning.
Chula Vista Police confirmed officers were sent to the Salerno Luxury Rental Apartments, in the Otay Ranch area, just after 1:30 a.m. after a female caller in the 1300 block of Calle Verona reported "that her friend had been shot and was bleeding."
One neighbor said she didn't hear gunshots but woke up to police surrounding the complex.
"There were two of them [police cars] when I first came out, and it was taped off outside," the woman said.
Officers arrived to find an unresponsive man outside of the apartment with a gunshot wound to his head. He was later pronounced dead at the scene.
Another victim, a 24-year-old man, was located with a gunshot wound to his face. Police said he was responsive and conscious as he was transported to the hospital with serious injuries.
"It made me a little nervous because I have my grandkids. I told them to just stay inside because we don't know what's happening outside," the resident said.
Chula Vista authorities have arrested two 15-year-old boys for attempted murder.
The shooting is the second one in the Otay Ranch area in less than 24 hours.
Chula Vista Police said several calls came in about a separate shooting outside of the Chili's on Paseo del Rey shortly before 9 PM Tuesday night.
CVPD said people in the restaurant reported a man limping into Chili's with what looked like a gunshot wound to the leg.
Police did not say what led to the man being shot but that he was taken to the hospital.
Anyone with information on the cases is urged to contact Chula Vista Police at 619-691-5151 or Crime Stoppers at 888-580-8477.
