**Fremont Reels After Deadly Drive-By Shooting; Residents Voice Safety Concerns**

**Fremont, CA** – Fremont police are investigating a fatal drive-by shooting that left two people dead late Friday night in the 6000 block of Stevenson Boulevard, near the Royal Palace Banquet Hall.

Officers responded to reports of shots fired at approximately 11:12 p.m. Upon arrival, they discovered two victims who had been shot by an unknown suspect who opened fire from a vehicle. One victim was pronounced dead at the scene, while the second died later at a local hospital. Initial reports indicated a possible third victim, but police later clarified that there were only two fatalities.

The Royal Palace Banquet Hall was closed on Saturday, but an employee confirmed that it was due to a lack of scheduled events and not directly related to the shooting.

The incident has shaken the Fremont community, with residents expressing concerns about safety in the usually quiet suburb. Steven Lee, a Fremont resident who moved from Oakland, shared his worries. “I don’t feel safe…I mean I moved out of Oakland to live here, in the suburbs. And even here, it just doesn’t feel safe,” he said.

The shooting occurred in a strip mall that is a regular gathering spot for the Undrwrld Car Club. Jack Chin, the club president, acknowledged that attendance at their Saturday evening event in the Globe Mall Plaza might be impacted. “I think that maybe some people were a little afraid to come out. They are worried that something else like that may happen,” Chin stated.

While Fremont police did not return requests for an interview, they confirmed on social media that these are the city’s third and fourth homicides of the year.

Adding to the mystery, there was also police activity in the 1400 block of Shafter Avenue in San Francisco Saturday evening, but Fremont police would not confirm whether it was connected to the Fremont shooting.

The City of Fremont and the police department have issued condolences to the victims’ families.

Authorities are urging anyone with information about the shooting to contact the Fremont Police Department’s Investigations Unit at (510) 790-6900. Anonymous tips can be sent by texting Tip FremontPD followed by a message to 888-777 or online. The investigation is ongoing.
