Teen Killed in Possible Gang Shooting
A 17-year-old Anaheim boy was gunned down early Saturday morning on a La Habra residential street in a crime being investigated as a gang-related drive-by shooting, police said.
The name of the victim was withheld Sunday pending notification of his family.
The youth was shot just after midnight and died at the scene in the 500 block of East 1st Street, police said.
“We got a report of someone down, and when officers arrived they found the victim in the street,” Lt. Steve Costanzo said.
Investigators worked through daybreak, but no suspects were in custody Sunday, nor did police have a vehicle description, Costanzo said.
Anyone with information about the shooting is asked to call detectives at (562) 905-9611.
