The search continued Monday for the person or people who fired shots during an illegal street takeover in Carson that killed one man and wounded six other people.
The shooting occurred at about 3 a.m. Sunday at the intersection of Charles Willard Street and Harmen Avenue, just west of Wilmington Avenue, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department.
Deputies dispatched to the scene located three shooting victims. One man was pronounced dead at the scene and two men were rushed to a hospital by paramedics in critical condition, sheriff’s officials said.

There were numerous onlookers present, and investigators are urging anyone who was at the takeover to come forward with any information.”
