Three blocks of White Road — from Alum Rock Avenue to East Hills Drive — were closed in both directions as police searched for a suspect.
The victim’s identity will be released after his formal identification by the coroner’s office and notification of next of kin.
Other details about the shooting, including a possible motive, remained unclear as of early Friday, Tepoorten said.
The shooting marks the city’s 32nd homicide this year. At this time last year, there had been 23.
