A gang\u002Drelated dispute at a Los Angeles park led to a barrage of gunshots over the weekend that left two men dead and six people wounded.
The shooting happened Sunday afternoon at Peck Park in the San Pedro neighbourhood, Los Angeles police said. About 500 people were in the park when the gunfire erupted and many of them ran for cover.
A dispute of some kind preceded the gunfire, Capt. Kelly Muniz told reporters. Police don’t know what started the disagreement or how many people fired. No arrests had been made and no information has been disclosed about suspects. Councilman Joe Buscaino represents the area and said the shooting occurred during an unpermitted car show hosted by gang members.
“Know that this park and many parks across the city have been having issues with these car shows,” Buscaino told Southern California News Group.Article content“Recreation staff on scene can identify potential issues and coordinate with park rangers,” Buscaino said. “We’ve lost a sense of common sense in the City of Los Angeles.”
