A 39-year-old man was shot and killed Friday evening on a Metro E (Gold) Line train in Baldwin Hills and four suspects fled on skateboards.
An argument on the street level of the Expo/La Cienega Station escalated and continued onto the train, where a suspect pulled out a gun and shot the man, who died at the scene, Los Angeles Police Department Officer Drake Madison told City News Service.
The suspects, who Madison said were boys and men 15 to 20 years old, fled before police arrived.
The investigation into the shooting caused E Line trains to turn back from the Culver City and La Brea stations. Bus shuttles replaced service between the La Brea and La Cienega stations, Metro announced.
