A teenage boy was killed in a shooting that took place during a massive brawl involving nearly 50 teens.
The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department (LASD) confirmed the fatal shooting occurred just before 4 p.m.
“Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Homicide detectives are responding to the 10800 block of Western Avenue, in the unincorporated city of Los Angeles regarding a shooting death investigation. The incident occurred on Monday, April 15, 2024, at 3:49 p.m.,” LASPD said in a statement.
As deputies arrived in response to the chaos, they found the victim, a teenage male, lying on the sidewalk with gunshot wounds.
Immediate efforts were made to save his life, and he was swiftly transported to a nearby hospital. Despite these efforts, the LASD later confirmed that the young victim was pronounced dead upon arrival at the medical facility.
Prior to the shooting, multiple fights had reportedly broken out among the large group of juveniles.
A video capturing the violent scene has since gone viral on social media platforms, showing the moment the suspect opened fire after apparently being attacked by several individuals.
The LASD has revealed that two individuals were detained at the scene, although it remains unconfirmed if they are also teenagers.
In California, minors are generally prohibited from owning or possessing firearms.

Gee, do you think criminal-friendly Los Angeles DA Gascon will go after the parents of the “teens” like the state of Michigan did recently for a teen shooter?
Parents in that case got 10 years.
Not holding my breath.
I suspect the “teens” were released to the “custody of their parent.”
actually, if this report is accurate, sounds like the shooter was defending himself from a mob ...
“unincorporated city of Los Angeles “
I didn’t know LA was unincorporated!?
he could have gone the costco route: required $100 private membership cards, good for entry and subsequent discounts on high-priced merchandise ...
Their demands might have included a petition to government for redress of grievances, to wit: “We should not have to file a tax return to receive our earned income tax credit. Filing returns is racist. We should just get our tax credits because of past injustices, without having to file a return.”
At first I misread that as, “… MORONS are generally prohibited from owning or possessing firearms,”
Tiggers.
Short term, expect to see a lot of businesses follow that model but as it spreads the Leftists cry discrimination because only they are allowed to exclude people from their enclaves.
California has Hollywood. Where are all those super heroes from the movies?
If that was about sticking some mary jane inside the cigars, you can get a “Blunt” at any grocery store to do that.
There were blacks in the fifties and sixties, too. But back then they mostly had fathers in the home to teach the young-uns how to behave. Thank you, welfare state.
Teens were in trouble since Archie had Betty and Veronica try the new spicy tasting Bar-B-Q potato chips at the soda shop.
Pushing at the boundaries.
The American people condone and enable this.
FReepers an exception.
When I was a kid back in the 60’s, “teen’s” were Archie and Jughead, Dobie and Maynard.
How I miss my youth...
Just another spirited meeting of the Immanuel Kant Debating Society.
What I find amazing is that I know who Dobie Gillis and Maynard G. Krebs were and remembered their full stage names.
Anyone also Remember 77 Sunset Strip and Cookie ?
Does anyone remember black and white TV’s ?`
Anita Bryants Greatest Hits will clear that room quickly.
