The incident involves “multiple victims,” police said. They did not provide exact details on how many victims or suspects were potentially involved.
“This is an ongoing investigation, and updates will be provided as they become available,” Long Beach police noted.
SkyCal flew over the spot of the incident, where there were multiple offers gathered outside of a parking garage in the area. There was medical waste on the ground outside of the garage, which was blocked by police tape.
Nearby, the Marathon Burger was holding a grand opening for its newest location. A large crowd was gathered outside the restaurant, where food was being served from a large shade covering. A spokesperson for the burger joint, which was founded by the brother of late rapper Nipsey Hussle, said that Snoop Dogg and Long Beach Mayor Rex Richardson were also in attendance.
“The opening was a huge success with strong community support,” the spokesperson said. “There was an incident nearby, but it was not connected to the event. The opening itself proceeded safely and without issue.”
