A man was fatally shot in Hawaiian Gardens late Friday night, and homicide detectives have yet to release any information about who pulled the trigger. Sheriff’s deputies found him suffering from at least one gunshot wound in the area of 226th Street and Horst Avenue, and he was rushed to a hospital, where he died from his injuries.
According to NBC Los Angeles, the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department confirmed that a person was shot and killed late Friday in Hawaiian Gardens, with the shooting reported just after 11 p.m. A separate account from mynewsla.com places the shooting at about 11:10 p.m. Friday in the 12000 block of 226th Street, noting that paramedics took the man to a hospital where he was later pronounced dead.
