A gunman in Long Beach fired into two vehicles, leaving a woman with a wound to the upper body, authorities said Saturday.

Officers dispatched to a “shots” call at about 9:50 p.m. Friday in the 2300 block of Locust Avenue spoke to a man, woman and teenager who told them that a suspect fired a gun while they were in a vehicle and missed them, the Long Beach Police Department reported.

While they were there, a hospital reported to police that they were treating a woman with a non-life-threatening gunshot wound.

Officers responded to that hospital and contacted another man and another teenager. This trio was also in a vehicle when the suspect fired at them in the same general location, police said.

Police had no suspect information and the investigation was ongoing.

Long Beach police urged anyone with information regarding the shootings to call them at 562-570-5273. Anonymous tips may be submitted through LA Crime Stoppers at 800-222-8477, or by visiting www.LACrimeStoppers.org.
