Lot of activity in San Pedro right now:

My colleague Donna Littlejohn talked to Sgt. Jeff Hamilton and got this info:

  • A special weapons team is at 19th and Mesa streets in San Pedro, where they are trying to force a homicide suspect to surrender.
  • He apparently shot a man three times at 10:30 a.m. in the 11th Street and Grand Avenue and took refuge in a house at 19th and Mesa.
  • The victim died at about 1 p.m. after he was taken to County Harbor-UCLA Hospital in critical condition, LAPD Sgt. Jeff Hamilton said.
  • The shooting occurred on the street and it is not clear what prompted the dispute.

i would appriciate that you would not call my house and inquire any facts from me where as if im related to the suspect in question because you print false information before you have facts about the suspect in question. I would hope you respect my wishes and not disturb my household. thank you.
