A County employee who worked out of the Compton sheriff’s Station has been shot and killed, apparently by a stray bullet meant for someone else. Here’s the scoop from City News Service:

LOS ANGELES – A Los Angeles County sheriff’s records clerk was fatally shot on a
South Los Angeles sidewalk, and police say she was an innocent bystander to a second, nearby deadly shooting, police said Sunday.
Adriana Pizarro, 34, was standing 150 yards away from some type of confrontation between an unknown shooter and a motorist when she was struck by a stray bullet. The motorist, Alexander Castro, 23, was shot as he drove down 50th Street, said Los Angeles police spokeswoman April Harding.
Castro’s car careened down the street before it crashed, and he was found dead inside.
Pizarro was rushed to County USC Medical Center, but died an hour later, said Harding.
The fatal shootings occurred around 9:15 p.m. Saturday in the 1200 block of East 50th Street near Central Avenue, said Officer April Harding, a spokeswoman for the Los Angeles Police Department.
Police could not say yet what preceded the shootings, or if gangs were involved. The attacks occurred in a residential neighborhood near Central Avenue and 50th Street.
Detectives believe that Castro was the target of the shooter, but have not determined whether the incident was gang related.
Pizarro worked in the sheriff’s Compton station.
No suspect information was immediately available and police asked anyone with information to call LAPD detectives at (323) 846-6556.
