Police have located a white van they believe is connected to the gunman who opened fire at a ballroom dance studio in Monterey Park on Saturday night, killing 10 people and injuring 10 others.
Multiple police cars surrounded the vehicle in Torrance on Sunday morning and shots were fired, law enforcement sources told The Times. It was not known who was in the vehicle or whether there were any injuries.
About 20 minutes after the shooting, a “male Asian suspect” with a firearm walked into another dance hall in the neighboring suburb of Alhambra, Luna said. “Some individuals wrestled the firearm from him, and that individual took off,” he said.
Officials are still working to determine whether there is a connection between the two incidents.

I think they’ve complemented and praised every government agency in Los Angeles.
CNN is showing a split screen view; the news conference and a live shot from Torrance, CA. Police vehicles have a white van blocked. SWAT are around, waiting.
She/he looks like either a lesbian or some stage of transgender.
You’re right, the sign language people always look weird.
I don’t know about always....but a lot of times.
There are several FReepers who are ASL “translaters”
Yes, indeed...Prayers for the victims and their families...
Sheriff Luna refused to confirm that the Torrance van is 100% connected to the shooting...A press conference is going on now...Not releasing the shooter's name at this time...Sheriff believes that Alhambra incident was connected to Monterey Park shooting...Remember, during Alhambra incident, people attacked the shooter...Then the shooter fled the scene...
An LASD armored car was next to the van...Side by side...A drone is also out there...The armored car moved away now...Check to see if the driver is dead?
Well, it’s the end of the road for the shooter.
What’s left is whatever hay the miliserable lefties think they can make out of it.
A lot of back-slapping and high-fiving going on. I find it rather disgusting. The DA Gascon, who loves to release violent criminals, even chimed in with the usual ‘woke’ fake tears.
Can we hear about the victims? So far, nothing. And as far as the van in Torrance goes, just blow it up.
Are ChiCom sleepers being activated?
Or could it be an old fashioned “Tong War” kicking into gear.
We got about 14 inches so far this year. I live here just a few big blocks from the van.
Ya just about. Why I turned it off.
Always ccw....always.
You're right volunbear.
Amen. 🙏
Yep. She appears more concerned about dividing people and pushing the narrative than she is about the loved ones of ten people who are all in the freshest stage of grief.
Driver dead. Based on the number of blankets being pulled out it’s likely he was sleeping in there a lot.
So I heard. Btw, I worked all over that area and LA for years...Know it all too well.
Don’t blame you. During events like these it seems local governments have turned these news’s conferences into self serving back slap fests. All the victims are dead, the injured all shot up, leaving dozens of families mourning, and these guys spend half the news conference complementing and praising local governments and each other. I find it quite odd and way out of line.
” these guys spend half the news conference complementing and praising local governments and each other.”
I started to notice that kind of thing back during the early days of Covid. Local governments would hold joint news conference giving case numbers, hospital usage, deaths, etc. That would take about 10-15 minutes then some local official would come on and spend 30-45 minutes praising everybody in the various agencies.
Agree. What they should do is report on what they can, stick to the facts, say thank you, and walk away. Not try to drum up more tax money by telling everyone what great job they did and how good they are.
It seems to be a trend. Using air time for their own benefit seems to be a trend with local governments.
