Man Shot in the Face Four Times With Pellet Gun

A San Leandro man was arrested last week after allegedly shooting another man in the face four times with a pellet gun, according to media reports.

Bravada Sessoms, 49, was arrested Friday after officers responded to a report of two people fighting at around 7 p.m. on the 800 block of B Street, the Hayward Daily Review reports.

Sessoms thought the victim was trying to steal his son’s cell phone and, during the argument, pulled out a pellet, shooting the victim repeatedly in the face and causing minor injuries, according to the Daily Review.

According to the Daily Review, the suspect also taunted a responding officer to shoot him before additional officers arrived and arrested Sessoms on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon.
