A man is in critical but stable condition Tuesday after he was shot in the head by an assailant riding a bicycle near the Fashion District in downtown Los Angeles.
Officers from the Los Angeles Police Department’s Central Division were called at 10:35 p.m. Monday to Washington Boulevard and Santee Street regarding reports of a shooting.
When they arrived at the scene, the officers learned the victim was seated inside a vehicle when the suspect rode past him on a bicycle and fired several shots at him before pedaling away, an LAPD officer told City News Service.
Los Angeles Fire Department paramedics were called and took the victim to a hospital, police said.
There was no suspect description.
