Suspect sought in Azusa shooting

AZUSA – A driver shot at three Azusa men standing in front of a liquor store Friday night.
Azusa Police Sgt. Randy Schmidt said the victims weren’t injured in the incident which is possibly gang-related.
At 11:53 p.m., police received several 9-1-1 calls about gunshots in the 900 block of Azusa Avenue.
The victims were in front of A to Z Liquor at 944 N. Azusa Ave. when a man driving a light-colored sedan went westbound on 10th Street and fired three to five rounds at them, Schmidt said.
The victims told police the driver may have said something before shooting but they didn’t understand what it was, according to Schmidt.
He said the rounds struck, but didn’t puncture, propane tanks that were in front of the store.
There was no description available for the suspect but he drove a new light-colored compact sedan similar to a Toyota Corolla.
