Rancho is known for not being the safest part of our city, where shootings occur daily and the crime rate is record high. We witnessed a shooting occurring next to the law enforcement station, which caught, even us by surprise. Crying calls for help, upset friends and family around the scene, a vehicle with bullet holes, and crime scene tape, looked like an event from a well-directed movie, which sadly it wasn't.

Upon our arrival on the scene, we found a white sultan with marks of bullets and two dead bodies next to it. It was pretty clear that these two were not regular citizens, by the way they were dressed, it's easy to conclude that they were gang members. We could not get too many details from the Sheriff's Department, considering that the investigation is still in progress, but the scenes were pretty self-explanatory.

An alleged gang shoot-out was in progress when the Sheriff decided to act to prevent it. Judging by the blood spatters, we believe that there could've been one or two more suspects who were able to get away, leaving four Sheriffs wounded, one of them in critical condition from what we could've seen. Keep in mind this isn't an official statement, but just our view and opinion on what could've happened. We would like to wish the sheriffs quick recovery, and to advise citizens to avoid this area at night as much as possible, as not to end up like an accidental victim in the shootout.
