One man was killed and three others were injured Saturday night in a gang-related shooting in Bell Gardens, authorities said.
The men were standing in the 5800 block of Quinn Street about 7 p.m. when a black Dodge pickup truck stopped and two men got out, approached the victims and began shooting, said Sheriff’s Deputy Bill Spear.
One man was shot in the head and died at the scene. Another was hit in the arm, and two others were wounded in the upper body, said Capt. Cynthia Barbee of the Bell Gardens Fire Department.
The driver of the pickup and the two gunmen then fled.
Authorities did not release the names of the victims, all in their 20s.
