Los Angeles Police Department detectives are investigating a shooting that reportedly stemmed from an attempted robbery on the Sunset Strip early Saturday morning.
The shooting occurred just before 3 a.m. on Sunset Boulevard in a parking lot near the famous Pink Taco restaurant. According to an incident report from LAPD's Robbery Homicide Division, the victim shouted at the suspect just moments before he was shot.His identity has yet to be released, though investigators suspect he is a Black man between 30 and 35-years old.
Pink Taco managers spoke with CBS reporters, who they told that while they own the property where the shooting occurred, they lease out that exact portion of the parking lot. They also noted that since they had closed almost two hours prior to the time of the shooting, that neither of the parties involved was expected to be a patron of the restaurant.Thanks for reading CBS NEWS.Please enter valid email address to continue
