One person was killed and another gravely wounded in a shooting late on Sunday at San Pedro Square in San Jose, California, a popular entertainment district that has been serving as an official World Cup fan zone. Police confirmed the fatality at the scene and said the second victim was transported to hospital with life-threatening injuries.

The shooting occurred around 10 p.m. local time, hours after the day’s only World Cup match—South Africa versus Canada—had concluded. Authorities said no game was being screened when gunfire broke out. Officers cordoned off the area, closed surrounding streets, and launched a homicide investigation. A Reuters journalist at the scene reported a heavy police presence and saw a person on a stretcher, partially covered by a white sheet, being rushed away by uniformed personnel.

A security guard who spoke on condition of anonymity told Reuters that the injured person was still moaning and had blood around the neck and upper back. Police were interviewing security staff and witnesses, but no suspect description or motive had been released by Monday morning. The San Pedro Square fan zone is one of several across the San Francisco Bay Area, which has hosted five World Cup matches, most recently a knockout game between Bosnia and the United States.

The incident follows other violent episodes near tournament-related gatherings in the United States, including a shooting near England’s team base in Kansas City earlier in June and a roadway attack in the same city that killed one person and injured fans heading to a match. As of Monday, police had not announced any arrests, and the investigation remained active. The identities of the victims were not immediately made public, and authorities urged residents to avoid the area while forensic teams processed the scene.
