Police are investigating a shooting that happened outside of a Target store in Baldwin Park on Monday evening.
It happened at around 7:50 p.m. in the parking lot of the store located in the 3100 block of Baldwin Park Boulevard, according to Los Angeles County firefighters.
One person, a man in his 20s, suffered multiple gunshot wounds and was taken to a nearby hospital. He is expected to survive.
Baldwin Park police officers told CBS News Los Angeles that they are searching for three suspects they believe are connected to the shooting. One individual was taken into custody.
"Preliminary findings indicate that this was potentially a gang-related crime," BPPD officers said in a release posted on Facebook.

Authorities are reviewing surveillance footage from the store and investigating witness statements.
The store was closed due to the ongoing investigation but reopened Tuesday morning.
