Police are asking for help identifying a man in connection with a shooting that killed a 34-year-old man at a North Long Beach apartment complex.<\/p>\n
The killing happened shortly before 7:55 p.m. on June 27 in the parking garage of the Northpointe Apartments on Paramount Boulevard, according to Long Beach police.<\/p>\n
Police said the gunman tried to rob a 34-year-old man before shooting him. The victim, later identified as Dajion Hunter, was pronounced dead at the scene, police said.<\/p>\n
Security camera footage captured roughly 15 minutes before the shooting showed a \u201cperson of interest\u201d walking through a parking lot near the apartment complex.<\/p>\n
He was described as a Black man in his 20s or 30s wearing a light blue or teal hat, a red shirt, a light-colored zip-up hooded sweater, blue jeans, and black shoes.<\/p>\n
Detectives believe the man may frequent the Northpointe Apartments, but did not specify if the man shown on video was believed to be the shooter.<\/p>\n
Anyone with information regarding this incident is urged to contact Homicide Detectives Michael Hubbard and Kelsey Myers at 562-570-7244.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Police are asking for help identifying a man in connection with a shooting that killed a 34-year-old man…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":133973,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[131,133,132],"class_list":["post-134275","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-long-beach","tag-long-beach","tag-long-beach-headlines","tag-long-beach-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/134275","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=134275"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/134275\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/133973"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=134275"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=134275"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=134275"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
