The Associated Press is reporting Wednesday that authorities are searching for a teenager suspected of shooting three members of a family in Compton, including a 10-year-old girl.
According to Lt. Henry Saucedo of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, the girl was in stable condition early Wednesday. A 17-year-old boy and 45-year-old man wounded in the shooting also were in stable condition after surgery.
Saucedo said the three were playing basketball when they were shot at about 5 p.m. Tuesday.
Authorities believe the shooter and one of the victims are gang members, Saucedo said.
Neither the suspect's age or identity, or the victims' names were released.
