Police are searching for those involved in the fatal shooting of a young man in North Hollywood on Saturday night.
A Los Angeles Police Department spokesperson confirmed that the shooting took place just after 9 p.m. near Vineland Avenue and Chandler Boulevard, not far from East Valley High School.
The spokesperson detailed that two suspects, described by LAPD as a Black man and a Hispanic man, approached the 20-year-old victim and one of them opened fire, striking the victim.
“Both suspects then fled the location,” the spokesperson said.
The unnamed victim was taken to a nearby hospital where he was pronounced deceased.
As of publication, it is unknown if the shooting was gang-related. No further details were immediately released by authorities.
Video taken by KTLA does show police had blocked off a workout area along the Chandler Bikeway, which runs parallel with Chandler Boulevard, in the immediate aftermath of the shooting.
