A 40-year-old California man was fatally shot in broad daylight at a Dublin sports complex Saturday, with police arresting his 77-year-old in-laws, who investigators say remained near the scene.

Jonathan McKinsey was found with multiple gunshot wounds in the parking lot of Dublin Sports Grounds shortly after 3 p.m. Saturday, according to Dublin Police Services. A police sergeant driving nearby spotted McKinsey lying on the ground and stopped to investigate as 911 calls began coming in.

McKinsey was pronounced dead at the scene. Witnesses helped officers identify and locate two people who remained nearby following the shooting, allowing police to detain them within minutes.

The suspects were identified as Shouyong Zhang and Shili Chen, both 77-year-old Dublin residents and a married couple. Police said the pair are McKinsey's parents-in-law. Both were arrested on suspicion of murder and booked into Santa Rita Jail.

Witnesses described a shocking scene in the normally quiet East Bay community. One witness, Assad Razawi, said he heard several gunshots and then saw McKinsey collapse. He also told local media that a man and woman appeared to walk away from the area after the shooting.

Police have not publicly identified a motive, and investigators continue to examine evidence to determine what led to the killing. Authorities said there are no outstanding suspects and no known threat to public safety.

Court records, however, show that McKinsey and his wife, Candice Jang, had been involved in a contentious divorce and child custody dispute. The couple had three children, and a court hearing in their case had been scheduled for the coming days.

Jang previously reported McKinsey to police over allegations involving their children. McKinsey was later charged with misdemeanor child abuse and was out on bail at the time of his death, according to court records and reporting on the case. He had pleaded not guilty and was seeking to participate in a mental health diversion program.

McKinsey also sought a protective order against Jang and filed for divorce. Court records show he had been seeking greater access to the couple's children after being limited to supervised visitation.

The legal dispute included allegations from both sides. McKinsey alleged that members of Jang's family had mistreated him, while Jang had previously sought a domestic violence protection order against him. Those court proceedings had been ongoing when McKinsey was killed.

None of those court allegations have been identified by police as the motive for the shooting, and authorities have not said whether the family dispute played a role in the homicide.

McKinsey worked as director of engineering for New York Times Games, where he had been employed since January 2023. The New York Times confirmed his position but declined to comment further on the circumstances surrounding his death.

The shooting has stunned residents in Dublin, a community where violent crime is relatively uncommon. The sports complex was temporarily closed while investigators processed the scene but has since reopened.

Zhang and Chen remain in custody as the homicide investigation continues. An arraignment was scheduled for Wednesday, while prosecutors review the case.
