A male shot in the head in a car-to-car shooting Saturday morning in the Mid-City area of Los Angeles died at a hospital.

The shooting occurred in southbound lanes of La Brea Avenue between Venice and Pico boulevards around 1 a.m., according to Officer Drake Madison of the Los Angeles Police Department.

Police did not immediately know whether the victim was a juvenile or adult, he said.

Others in the car were not wounded when a vehicle pulled alongside their stopped vehicle and shots were fired, Madison said.

The suspect was described as a Hispanic man, 25 years old, 5 feet 8 inches tall and 165 pounds with long hair and wearing prescription glasses, driving a white 4-door BMW, last seen southbound on La Brea, police said.

A motive for the shooting was unknown and it was not known if the shooting was gang-related, Madison said.
