Shortly after 4:30 p.m. Sunday, officers were called to the 300 block of Sunset Drive, near Highway 4, on reports of a shooting. When they arrived, they found the boy, who had been struck by gunfire.

Officers provided medical aid to the 9-year-old until Contra Costa County firefighters arrived. The boy was taken to a local hospital for injuries that are believed to be non-life-threatening.
