Woman Found Fatally Shot In Carport Behind Pomona Apartment Complex

POMONA (CBSLA.com) — A woman was found fatally shot Monday in a carport behind an apartment complex in Pomona.

Pomona police received several "shots fired" 911 calls around 2:55 a.m. in the 700 block of San Francisco Avenue, authorities said.

Officers discovered the victim, described as a Hispanic woman 30 to 40 years old, with multiple gunshot wounds. She was pronounced dead at the scene.

A woman who wished to be unidentified said the gunfire woke up her and her husband.

"Just before 3 [a.m.], I heard four gunshots and called 911. I told [police] that a car had taken off down the street; a loud car," she said.

Residents told KCAL9's Greg Mills that they didn't recognize the victim, and she didn't live in the apartment building.

No suspect information was released.

Anyone with information should contact the Pomona Police Department's Detective Bureau at (909) 620-2085.
