Man Critically Injured In North Hollywood Shooting


LOS ANGELES (CBS) ― A man was critically injured in a shooting in North Hollywood Saturday night, just two miles away from a shooting outside a birthday party on Lankershim Boulevard.

The shooting happened in the 7000 block of Coldwater Canyon Avenue at about 9 p.m., Los Angeles police Sgt. Tom Wich said. The victim, whose name is being withheld, was in critical condition with two gunshot wounds.

There were no immediate arrests, Wich said.

Even though the shooting happened just 30 minutes later and in close proximity to a shooting outside a banquet hall birthday party, police do not believe the two incidents are connected.
