One person was killed and four others injured after a man opened fire at an overnight party early Sunday in East Hollywood to celebrate the upcoming Black Entertainment Television Awards.

The assailant was a lone gunman who is still at large, said Officer Drake Madison of the Los Angeles Police Department.

The shooting occurred at 5:17 a.m., when the gunman fired several rounds, Madison said. Ambulances transported three victims to a local hospital, where one died. The two others arranged their own hospital transportation.

Investigators have not released information about the victims. The coroner’s office said early Sunday that it had not yet received the case.

BET parties and rap concerts are apparently very dangerous.

Which was done with intent to celebrate: the party, or the opening fire?

The gunfire was to boost someone’s street cred (either the shooter or the victim’s).

Only one dead, only four hurt - not that big of a deal, I guess.

Wonder what the count is in Chicago for the weekend so far?

Ain’t “real” until someone is DEAD, huh…?

I’m glad the *whole world* is seeing this..!

Saves lots of taxi drivers and 7-11 clerks.

Looks like Black Leeders aren’t caring about this
