Sunset Boulevard Shooting Videotaped

LOS ANGELES, CA — A man shot another man in front of a crowd of onlookers on Sunset Boulevard, and police released a video of the shooting Thursday in hope that someone will recognize the shooter.

The incident happened early one morning of Feb. 2 outside a club in the 3000 block of Sunset Boulevard in Silver Lake. Having been ejected from the premises by a security guard and one other man, the shooter got into an argument on the street.

"The suspect became enraged, removed a handgun from his waistband and shot the additional male," according to a police statement. "The suspect entered a dark-colored, four-door Range Rover and fled east on Sunset Boulevard."

Firefighters took the victim to a hospital, where he was treated and later released, police said.

The suspect is described as Asian, about 35 years old, 5 feet 8 inches tall and about 150 pounds.

Anyone who recognizes the suspect or had information about the shooting was urged to call detectives at the LAPD's Rampart Station at (213) 484-3660. During non-business hours, calls should be directed to (877) LAPD-24- 7.
