Fire victims’ aunt hurt in shooting
An aunt of three girls killed in a fire in Long Beach last week was wounded in a shooting Sunday night, Long Beach police said Monday.
The 22-year-old woman, whom police have not identified, was at a vigil near the burned detached garage on Martin Luther King Jr. Avenue when she was shot in the lower leg and a 17-year-old boy was shot in the torso, Long Beach police said.
She was not at the apartment at the time of the fire early Friday, police said.
