Neighbors in shock after suspects fire nearly 20 shots at million-dollar Rocklin home
ROCKLIN – The search is on for shooting suspects in Rocklin after a home was hit by bullets nearly 20 times in the Whitney Oaks area.
The shooting happened on Tuesday at around 10:30 p.m. on Pebble Beach Road, a gated community with million-dollar-plus homes.
“It is pretty naïve of us to think that we’re immune,” said one neighbor just a few doors down. “We are not. Nobody is.”
Surveillance video from a neighbor across the street captures the two suspects firing multiple rounds at the home and then running off.
The damage they did is clearly visible in the daylight with nearly 20 bullet holes in the walls and windows, and plenty of people were inside when it happened. Rocklin Police said no one was hurt.
“Everybody here is just in shock,” said a neighbor who did not want to be identified.
Rocklin Police said this was a targeted attack, but they still have not determined a motive.
“I don’t even know if that gives you any solace,” the neighbor told CBS 13.
To get into the neighborhood, there is a gate with a code for cars, but pedestrians have an open pathway. That is the way neighbors think the shooting suspects got inside.
“We were actually just talking about how safe the neighborhood has been for us and we’ve lived in the area for over 30 years,” said Kimberly Olker, who was on a walk in the neighborhood on Thursday.
Police said this shooting also comes as a surprise to them and that they have never received a call to this area or home before.
“What we’ve heard is that was a warning,” said a neighbor. “What are they going to do next? If that warning didn’t work.”
Neighbors told CBS 13 that they are now working with their HOA to get a locked gate so people cannot walk in and out of the neighborhood.
“I still think this is a very safe neighborhood,” said Olker. “I am so sorry for the family that had their house shot at.”
If you know anything about this shooting, call Rocklin PD’s Detective Sergeant Andre Booker at 916-625-5571.

Popular gluten free tortilla strips recalled over possible contamination with wheat
A food company known for popular grocery store condiments has recalled a package of tortilla strips that may be contaminated with wheat, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration said Friday. The product is meant to be gluten-free.
Sugar Foods, a manufacturing and distribution corporation focused mainly on various toppings, artificial sweeteners and snacks, issued the recall for the “Santa Fe Style” version of tortilla strips sold by the brand Fresh Gourmet.
“People who have a wheat allergy or severe sensitivity to wheat run the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume the product,” said Sugar Foods in an announcement posted by the FDA.
Packages of these tortilla strips with an expiration date as late as June 20, 2025, could contain undeclared wheat, meaning the allergen is not listed as an ingredient on the label. The Fresh Gourmet product is marketed as gluten-free.
Sugar Foods said a customer informed the company on Nov. 19 that packages of the tortilla strips actually contained crispy onions, another Fresh Gourmet product normally sold in a similar container. The brand’s crispy onion product does contain wheat, and that allergen is noted on the label.
No illnesses tied to the packaging mistake have been reported, according to the announcement from Sugar Foods. However, the company is still recalling the tortilla strips as a precaution. The contamination issue may have affected products distributed between Sept. 30 and Nov. 11 in 22 states: Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Iowa, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Maryland, Maine, Michigan, Minnesota, North Carolina, New Jersey, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Texas, Utah, Virginia and Washington.
Sugar Foods has advised anyone with questions about the recall to contact the company’s consumer care department by email or phone.
CBS News reached out to Sugar Foods for more information but did not receive an immediate reply.
This is the latest in a series of food product recalls affected because of contamination issues, although the others involved harmful bacteria. Some recent, high-profile incidents include an E. coli outbreak from organic carrots that killed at least one person in California, and a listeria outbreak that left an infant dead in California and nine people hospitalized across four different states, according to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention. The E. coli outbreak is linked to multiple different food brands while the listeria outbreak stemmed from a line of ready-to-eat meat and poultry products sold by Yu-Shang Foods.
