A street takeover in Los Angeles turned violent when a shooting erupted at the scene, and four people have been reportedly hospitalised for gunshot wounds, after the overnight spectacle that was caught on camera, Fox News reported Monday (local time).
The incident comes just weeks after another street takeover turned violent in downtown Los Angeles, where a crowd smashed windows and forced its way into a luxury apartment building.
According to the Los Angeles Times, the incident occurred at a street takeover in Rosemead. The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department is currently investigating the incident. The Sheriff’s Temple Station deputies responded to reports of a street takeover at Del Mar and Garvey avenues at 1:47 a.m. The intersection, where vehicles were performing doughnuts and other stunts, is surrounded by eateries and small businesses.
As per reports, a shooting occurred during the takeover, and four people were wounded by gunfire. However, it remains unclear whether the sheriff‘s deputies were present during the exchange of gunfire. All four victims were later hospitalised and were reported to be stable.
This is a developing story. More details awaited.
