WEST SACRAMENTO, Calif. — A shooting that killed a teenager in West Sacramento left another man in critical condition due to a stray bullet, police said.
There was no broken glass from the shooting, just a bullet hole to a wooden frame on a yellow trailer home. The bullet pierced a metal pole before ending up inside the home.
West Sacramento Police Sergeant Eric Angle said the stray bullet critically injured a 26-year-old man inside the home.
It happened around 11:30 p.m. on April 17 at the Westwind Estates trailer park along Sacramento avenue, but Sgt. Angle says the stray bullet was related to a shooting that happened not far from the home.

Authorities have not released the identity of the victims. The 26-year- old man is in the hospital in critical condition, police said.
