HMB man shot at Alliance gas station Sunday night

A 26-year-old Half Moon Bay man was shot in the arm at the Alliance station at the corner of Highways 92 and 1, shortly before 8:20pm Sunday night, according to city police. The victim was transported to Stanford Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries to his right forearm.
