A person was injured during a vehicle-to-vehicle shooting at a freeway transition road in downtown Los Angeles Saturday, authorities said.
Paramedics dispatched to the scene at 4:09 a.m. rushed one person in fair condition to an area hospital, according to Nicholas Prange of the Los Angeles Fire Department.
Officers were dispatched at 4:12 a.m. regarding a vehicle that had spun out facing the wrong way on the transition from the northbound Harbor (110) Freeway to the eastbound Santa Monica (10) Freeway, California Highway Patrol Officer Peter Nicholson said.
Nicholson confirmed that there was a shooting and that the vehicle that spun out was a black GMC SUV.
