The Golden State Warriors and “Dub Nation” celebrated the franchise’s first NBA Championship in 40 years with a parade through downtown Oakland on Friday. It had no visible impact on the parade, but reports indicate there was a shooting just a few blocks away from the parade route.
CBS SF and the Oakland Police Department are reporting three people were injured, two critically, as a result of a shooting on the 1800 block of Lakeshore Avenue.
