2 injured, 1 dead in El Sereno shooting at Maycrest Avenue house
One man was killed and two others were injured in a shooting in El Sereno just after midnight Tuesday.
Los Angeles police officers responded to multiple calls of a shooting at a house on the 4400 block of Maycrest Avenue at 12:28 a.m. Tuesday.
Arriving officers found two victims with gunshot wounds outside the house, according to LAPD Homicide Lt. Ryan Rabbett, and a third victim with a gunshot wound down the street. That man, described in his late 40s or early 50s, was declared dead at the scene by paramedics, Rabbett said.
A man was hospitalized in stable condition and a woman was hospitalized in critical condition. Both were in their 40s or 50s, Rabbett said.
Evidence suggested the shooting may have occurred on the porch or in the yard, Rabbett said Tuesday morning, though he said the investigation was still in its preliminary stages.
Police believe others may have been inside the house at the time of the shooting but left before officers arrived.
No further details were immediately released about the shooting.
The LAPD homicide investigation was ongoing.
