Emergency crews took three other people to the hospital -- a 25-year-old man who suffered life-threatening injuries, as well as a 19-year-old man and a 51-year-old man who are expected to survive.

Two other victims from the shooting, a 25-year-old man and 51-year-old woman, later arrived at the hospital with injuries not considered life-threatening.

Following an investigation, officers learned that Simmons was involved in the shooting along with the 25-year-old who arrived at the hospital later with injuries. He's been identified as Sean Harrison of Concord.

Officers have arrested Harrison, as well as 26-year-old San Francisco resident Jamare Coats, who allegedly drove Harrison to the hospital.

Both Harrison and Coats have been booked into jail on suspicion of homicide and firearms violations.

Police have not released a motive for the shooting as the case remains under investigation.
