A gunman fired multiple shots at a car in central Bakersfield early Sunday morning, killing the driver and forcing a passenger to take control of the car and bring it to a stop.  Twenty-one-year-old Keshawn Black had just passed P Street on California Avenue around midnight when bullets fired from another vehicle pierced the driver’s side of the Oldsmobile he was driving, striking him, according to news releases from the Kern County Coroner’s office and the Bakersfield Police Department. From the passenger seat, Black’s brother, Charles, brought the Oldsmobile to a stop at Chester Avenue, some six blocks west of the incident, police said. Black was taken to Kern Medical Center where he was pronounced dead. The Bakersfield Police Department is investigating the case as a homicide. Anyone with information about the shooting is asked to call the department at 327-7111.
