On February 10, 2021, at about 6:00 p.m., Sheriff's deputies and officers with the Sycuan Police Department responded to 3007 Dehesa Road in the unincorporated area of El Cajon for a report of a shooting. When deputies and officers arrived, they found an adult male who had been shot in a hotel room at the Singing Hills Golf Resort at Sycuan. They provided lifesaving measures until relieved by Sycuan Fire Department personnel. The male was transported to a local area hospital.  Unfortunately, the male was pronounced deceased shortly after arriving.

The Sheriff's Homicide Unit responded and has assumed responsibility of the investigation.

The identity of the male is known to investigators; however, his name is being withheld pending family notification.
