Man shot after Westchester High game

A man was shot and wounded outside Loyola Marymount University after watching a high school basketball game between Westchester and Fairfax at the university's campus, authorities said this morning.

The shooting occurred around 10 p.m. Wednesday just outside the gates of the university at West 80th Street and Loyola Boulevard in Westchester, said Sgt. John Martin of the Los Angeles Police Department's Pacific Station.

He said the shooting occurred shortly after the game had ended.

The man was hospitalized in stable condition with a shoulder wound, Martin said.

"We've gotten conflicting reports about the shooter being in a vehicle or on foot," Martin said. "We're just not sure right now."

There were no immediate arrests.

The suspects fled in a compact car and a Hummer sport-utility vehicle, KNBC Channel 4 reported.
