Police said the victim was shot in the back while walking past the street takeover on his way home.
The Los Angeles Police Department is searching for a suspect who shot a 60-year-old man during a street takeover.
The shooting happened on Sept. 18 at about 10:45 p.m. at the intersection of Western Avenue and 48th Street in South L.A. According to the LAPD, the suspect was a spectator at the takeover and got into an altercation with someone else watching the sideshow.
