LOS ANGELES — The shooting at a crowded San Pedro park Sunday afternoon that killed two people and wounded six was believed to be gang-related, according to the Los Angeles Police Department.
The LAPD said it got reports of a shooting just before 4 p.m. Pacific time at Peck Park, where about 500 people were gathered. A softball game and car show were taking place but it’s not clear if either event was connected to the incident.
The shooting occurred near the area of the baseball diamond, LAPD Officer Drake Madison said. The number of suspects is unknown, but the incident is believed to be gang-related and to have resulted from a dispute between two parties, he said.
