Local NBC affiliate KNBC-LA reported just moments ago on the shooting that took place in Peck Park, which is in San Pedro/Los Angeles. At the time, both a car show and a baseball game were underway. Update at 7:25 pm Los Angeles time (10:25 ET): Fox LA has just reported that the briefing with officials confirmed two of the four critically wounded individuals have died.
Police say seven victims were shot, four of whom were critically injured. Two now deceased. Four men and three women were reportedly transported to hospitals after the shooting.
Watch the report from KNBC here:
LAPD tweeted that it was not an active shooter situation but did not yet make a statement that we’ve found about taking anyone into custody.
