(Sacramento) A quiet suburban neighborhood called River Park, bordering on east Sacramento, is where Sacramento Police arrested a man in connection with a drive-by shooting at a local ABC affiliate news station, KXTV, in California’s capital city.

At least three bullets pierced glass encasing the lobby. One person was in the area. Employees are calling the experience harrowing and frightening. Fortunately, no one was hurt. 

The shooting occurred Friday, September 19, 2025 at about 1:30PM.  Responding officers and investigators immediately set-up a crime scene and subsequently identified the vehicle.

Within 24-hours, a 64-year old man was taken into custody, arrested for assault with a deadly weapon and shooting into an occupied building. He’s booked into the Sacramento County Jail on $200,000 bail.

The shooting comes one day after protesters gathered at the station in response to ABC pulling Jimmy Kimmel off the air reportedly over comments made about Charlie Kirk’s assassination. There were no protests underway at the time of the shooting.

Tegna is the company that owns ABC 10. A spokesperson said they are fully cooperating with law enforcement and have taken additional measures to ensure the safety of employees.

The FBI is also assisting with the investigation. California Governor Gavin Newsom was briefed on the shooting.  “While no injuries have been reported, any act of violence toward journalists is an attack on our democracy itself and must be condemned in the strongest terms,” the governor’s office shared in a post on X. “We stand with reporters and staff who work every day to keep communities informed and safe!”
