1 Dead, 2 Injured In Car-To-Car Shooting

LOS ANGELES Three people in a car were shot, one fatally, in Southwest Los Angeles, police said Sunday.

The shooting took place at about 7:20 p.m. Saturday on Western Avenue near 95th Street, according to Los Angeles police spokeswoman Karen Smith.

The three victims were in a car when suspects in another vehicle opened fire, Smith said.

One victim died at the scene.

Two others suffered gunshot wounds to their legs and were taken to a hospital in stable condition, Smith said.

Smith said it had not been determined whether or not the incident was gang-related.
