A 34-year-old man was found fatally wounded at the entrance to a Ralphs supermarket in Woodland Hills, authorities said Sunday.
Officers responded shortly before midnight Saturday to a radio call of a shooting in the parking lot of the store at 21909 Ventura Blvd. They found the victim lying on the ground at the store’s entrance, just outside his vehicle, the Los Angeles Police Department’s Media Relations Division reported.
“When they (officers) arrived, he was conscious and barely breathing,” LAPD spokeswoman Norma Eisenman said.
Paramedics rushed the West Hollywood resident to a hospital, where he died from his injuries, Eisenman said. His car was described as a black Mercedez-Benz, CBS2 reported.
Detectives later learned that a single gunshot was heard in the parking lot of the supermarket and the victim drove his vehicle to the entrance, where he then collapsed, Eisenman said. Witnesses in the area saw a white vehicle leave the scene after the shot was fired, according to media reports.
The victim’s name will be released pending notification of next of kin, according to the Los Angeles County coroner’s office.
Anyone with information regarding the shooting was urged to call the LAPD’s Topanga station at 818-756-4800.
The man who died was a Weho resident.
WOODLAND HILLS, Calif. – A 34-year-old man was found fatally wounded at the entrance to a Ralphs supermarket in Woodland Hills
I know his parents, they are in Armenia and they are trying to come to Los Angeles
Simply awful. My condolences to those who knew him.
This appears to be an isolated incident and has nothing to do with West Hollywood.
He was a West Hollywood resident. Some of us may know him, so it is news that is relevant to WeHo.
Except the victim was from WeHo. Reading comprehension is not your strong suit.
Forgive me, I wrote the comment last night before the residency of the victim was known or reported.
Was the title of the article different when it was first reported?
As far as reading comprehension goes, the comment was clearly made 15 hours ago.
