The man who was shot, described only as being in his 20s or 30s, was transported by ambulance to a hospital, where he died, police said. Officials did not release any information about the gunman or his vehicle.

Video shot by OnScene.TV showed a few men and two LAPD officers near the victim as he lay on the ground. One man sat and held the victim before paramedics and fire crews arrived to transport him to the hospital.
