"During the investigation, it was learned that friends of Augustine Sendejo had been involved in a run-in with some gang members earlier that evening. Gunshots had been exchanged, but no one was hit," police said. "There is a possibility that Sendejo was mistaken for someone involved in the earlier shooting and was not the intended target."
