Four people were shot in east Los Angeles near to where swarms of fans packed the streets for the England vs. Mexico World Cup clash, which England won 3-2.

Cops received reports of three shootings – including at Whittier Boulevard – just after 9:40 p.m. Sunday, a LA Sheriff’s Department spokesperson told The Post.

Four were hospitalized but the extent of their injuries remains unknown.

LASD said no fatalities were reported, a suspect hasn’t been arrested, and no motive has been identified.

Whittier Boulevard is a popular hotspot among Mexican-Americans – with crowds flooding on the streets celebrating during the tournament.

Earlier Sunday, Los Angeles Police Department chiefs issued a city-wide tactical alert, meaning those on-duty are not allowed to clock off until they are told so, KNBC reported.
