SACRAMENTO (AP) _ Sacramento County sheriff’s deputies are investigating the shooting death of a 26-year-old man who was attending his aunt’s funeral.

Investigators on Monday continued to withhold the name of the victim, who died Saturday after a dispute arose during the service.

Julie Vang, who told The Sacramento Bee she is the victim’s sister, said her brother was sitting down when someone ran toward him and opened fire.

A 23-year-old man also suffered injuries in the shooting.

The sheriff’s department said it is seeking the public’s help in locating possible suspects.
