LOS ANGELES – A woman is dead, and another person injured after a shooting unfolded near a candlelight vigil in Watts early Sunday morning.<\/p>\n
The search for the suspect continues.<\/p>\n
The site of a candlelight vigil in South LA turned into a crime scene early Sunday morning.<\/p>\n
Neighbors say shots rang out around 2 a.m. Sunday near 104th Street and Wilmington Avenue.<\/p>\n
LAPD says one woman suffered a gunshot wound and died at the hospital. They say another woman was injured in the shooting.<\/p>\n
Before Sunday’s early morning shooting, dozens of people filled the area to mourn the life of Albertshay Marie Russell.<\/p>\n
“All we are doing is coming to show our support. We really don’t know what took place. It’s crazy,” a woman who came to the site of the vigil told FOX 11 on Sunday.<\/p>\n
On Sunday afternoon, close family friends of Russell came to Watts, where candles still flickered from the night before, to honor the 31-year-old mother of four.<\/p>\n
“She was a real person. She was a humble person. She was somebody who was loved,” a close family friend of Russell told FOX 11.<\/p>\n
Neighbors say Russell was killed in a domestic violence incident earlier in the week.<\/p>\n
Family members say the father of her two younger children is responsible for her death. LAPD has not confirmed that information or given a description of the suspect.<\/p>\n
Police say they are also still searching for the suspect behind Sunday’s shooting in Watts.<\/p>\n
