A 33-year old man was shot to death during a dispute with two men who allegedly used the services of a prostitute without paying, Los Angeles police said. The man, whose name was withheld until his relatives could be notified, was found lying on a sidewalk in the 6200 block of Lexington Avenue about 4:30 a.m. and was taken to Hollywood Presbyterian Medical Center, where he died while being treated for a gunshot wound in his chest. Police said the victim apparently had argued with his assailants over money and their treatment of a woman working for him as a prostitute. The suspects, both in their late 20s, fled in a car.
