ANTIOCH, Calif. (KGO) -- Police are searching for a gunman who shot a person around 9:20 p.m. Thursday in a parking lot in Antioch.

Employees at a Lowe's were shocked when a shooting victim walked in the door Wednesday night.

Police believe the victim was shot in the parking lot. The store was still open at the time.

The driver of a minivan eventually crashed into bags of mulch outside the Garden Center, located near Auto Center and Sycamore drives.

Workers locked down the store as they ran for cover and called police.

At least half a dozen casings were found in the parking lot and there are bullet holes in the driver's side window.

This is the second car shooting in the area in just as many days.

Tuesday night, less than three miles away, police are investigating a fatal shooting on Highway 4.

The victim drove off the roadway and ran into a fence along California Avenue.

It was the fourth deadly shooting and the 18th freeway shooting since November.

No one was been arrested in either shooting.
