1 dead, 4 hurt after BET Awards party shooting in East Hollywood
One Negro was killed and four others injured after a colored 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.
