LOS ANGELES – Detectives with the Los Angeles Police Department were investigating the deadly shooting of a woman who was found inside a parked vehicle in Koreatown Tuesday night, and whether the shooting was related to another shooting in the Mid-Wilshire area.
LAPD officials said a 50-year-old man walked into the 77th Division station and turned himself in for the shooting just before 11 p.m. Tuesday.
Responding officers discovered the shooting victim inside a blue sedan on the 800 block of S. Berendo Street. The unidentified woman was pronounced dead by Los Angeles City Fire paramedics after suffering from multiple gunshot wounds.
LAPD investigators believe the man who turned himself in for the Koreatown shooting may be connected to a shooting. The second shooting happened in the upscale Windsor Square neighborhood, in the Mid-Wilshire area, earlier on Tuesday around 4:20 p.m. near the intersection of S. Victoria Avenue and W. Olympic Boulevard.
