Police say a Pacoima man couldn't take the noise from his neighbor's car stereo anymore and shot him to death early Wednesday morning.
Raymundo Serrato, 58, died at the scene of the 2:15 a.m. shooting in the 13000 block of Kelowna Street, said Officer Kate Lopez of the Los Angeles Police Department's Media Relations Section.
Lopez said the man was shot by a Jubenal Guillen, 55, during a dispute. Guillen was arrested on suspicion of murder.
"There were words exchanged; a scuffle," LAPD Detective Pat Barron said. "And after the scuffle -- or during the scuffle -- the suspect produced a firearm and shot the victim."
A woman who lives in the neighborhood said that the younger man regularly came home in the early morning hours and made a lot of noise, which may have upset his 58-year-old next-door neighbor.
"So I guess he, just, probably, had enough. He had enough, so he shot him," Lisa Velasquez said.
