Man wounded in Rosemead drive-by shooting
ROSEMEAD -- A young man was shot and wounded Wednesday in a drive-by shooting, authorities said.
The attack was reported about 4:45 p.m. in the 2600 block of Pine Street, Los Angeles County sheriff's Sgt. Jeff Walker said.
A 19-year-old man was wounded in the arm in the shooting, the sergeants said. The wound did not appear to be life-threatening.
The victim had just walked out of a house when he was approached by four attackers described as four male Asians in a silver, newer-model Acura, Walker said.
Someone opened fire from inside the car, striking the victim one, he said.
A motive in the shooting was unknown Wednesday, Walker said, however sheriff's gang investigators were handling the case.
