OAKLAND — Three men, including two who were in a vehicle, were wounded in two East Oakland shootings Saturday night and early Sunday, authorities said.
All were in stable condition.
Police said the shootings are not related.
The double shooting happened about 11 p.m. Saturday in the 2300 block of East 12th Street.
Two men, one 20 and the other 21, were in a vehicle with a third man that had stopped for a red light. The men told police that a pickup truck pulled up alongside them and someone inside began shooting at them.
The two men were wounded and the other man, who was not hurt, drove them to a hospital, authorities said.

A 21-year-old man told police he was walking by himself when another person confronted him on the street and began shooting at him. The man was hit in the arm and was able to make it to his home in the area where police and medical personnel were called. He was taken to a hospital.
A motive for the shooting is under investigation.
