An investigation was underway after two people were shot, one fatally, at a South Los Angeles shopping center.

Police said three men drove up to the victims, got out and shot them before driving off. A 25-year-old man died and a 51-year-old man was taken to the hospital in unknown condition. Investigators believe the incident may be gang-related.

(According to unofficial sources, the deceased was a member of the '74 Hoover' gang, nicknamed 'Chipmunk', while the 51-year-old was homeless and was simply at the wrong place at the wrong time.)

EDIT Sorry everyone, but I got the wrong case.

An investigation is underway after five people were shot outside of a corner store in South Los Angeles on Tuesday afternoon. Investigators believe the incident may be gang-related.

Los Angeles police were called to the scene outside of Seven Market at Figueroa Street and Manchester Avenue around 2:30 p.m.

"At about 2:30 this afternoon, our officers received a radio call of a shooting here at 8501 South Figueroa. When they arrived, they were able to confirm that we did have five victims of a shooting at this time, and they are being treated as we speak," said Capt. Michael Bland with LAPD.

Initially, police said one of the victims had died. In a later update, LAPD said that victim is still alive and in "extremely critical condition." A second victim is also in critical condition, according to police. LAPD did not provide details on the conditions of the other three victims taken to the hospital.

LAPD said the victims include four men and one woman between the ages of 19 and 35 years old.

Police said three male suspects in hoodies fled the scene in a white Honda Civic.

A preliminary investigation determined multiple vehicles fled the scene, according to LAPD. Investigators believe there were two or three shooters, but they don't know who was in what vehicle.

Police said the same suspects could be connected to another shooting just moments later and a few blocks away. The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department said one of its deputies was on a traffic stop when a vehicle racing by opened fire on the deputy. Thankfully, the deputy was not hurt.

"It's an ongoing investigation.
