A man was fatally shot Monday in the Del Rey area in what may have been a case of road rage, and an investigation was underway.
The shooting was reported about 12:15 p.m. at Lincoln Boulevard near the terminus of the Marina (90) Freeway, and the victim died at the scene, the Los Angeles Police Department reported.
The westbound Marina 90 Freeway was closed in the area while an investigation was conducted, with police telling reporters at the scene that two drivers may have gotten into some type of road rage confrontation on the freeway.
The drivers exited the freeway and reached Lincoln and Maxella Avenue, where one apparently got out of his vehicle and shot the other before driving away, police said.
KTLA reported from the scene the gunman was last seen driving away north on Lincoln Boulevard in a four-door black vehicle, possibly a Kia.
The 90 Freeway was reopened by mid-afternoon, but a stretch of Lincoln Boulevard was blocked to accommodate the investigation.
