A man was shot during a street takeover in Boyle Heights on Monday morning, according to authorities. <\/p>\n

The takeover occurred near S. Lorena Street and Whittier Boulevard around 2:15 a.m., according to the Los Angeles Police Department. <\/p>\n

During the takeover, a man in his 30s was shot twice by another man at a nearby gas station, according to the LAPD.<\/p>\n

The victim was hospitalized in unknown condition while the shooter fled and is still at large, police said. The shooter may have been driving a gray Nissan Altima. <\/p>\n

OnScene TV video of the incident showed multiple patrol cars stationed near where the shooting took place. Yellow police tape was used to cordon off the gas station.<\/p>\n

The takeover involved more than 200 cars, KTLA<\/a> reported.<\/p>\n

Street takeovers \u2014 featuring cars performing doughnuts in intersections while crowds gather to watch \u2014 have become a growing problem for police. In March, Mayor Karen Bass announced that the LAPD was surging resources to deter and respond to street takeovers in downtown L.A. after a brawl from a takeover spilled into an upscale apartment complex. The apartment lobby\u2019s windows were smashed during the fight, and at least one person was sent to the hospital.<\/p>\n

Later that month, a crowd of people climbed on top of a Metro bus and prevented it from moving during a raucous street takeover in the Harbor Gateway area.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A man was shot during a street takeover in Boyle Heights on Monday morning, according to authorities.
