The shooting occurred at an apartment complex in the 18300 block of Saticoy Street about 8 p.m. Friday. The victim was taken to Northridge Hospital Medical Center, where he died.
The witness said the gunman, who fled on foot, was a 6-foot-1, 200-pound black man in his 20s, wearing black clothing, police said.
