2 Wounded in Barber Shop Shooting in Venice

2 Wounded in Barber Shop Shooting in Venice:

A gunman walked into a barber shop on Lincoln Boulevard in Venice on Wednesday morning and shot and wounded two men, police said.


The shooting occurred about 9:30 a.m. after a man wearing a black hoodie sweatshirt opened fire, said Officer Gregory Baek of the Los Angeles Police Department.


One man was treated at the scene for a foot wound, and the other was taken to a hospital by a private citizen, Los Angeles police Officer Bruce Borihanh said. That man, whose condition was unknown, may have been taken to Daniel Freeman Marina Hospital by a friend, police said.


The shooting at Pico Barbershops at 1920 Lincoln Blvd. was reportedly sparked by an argument.


The gunman "walked into the shop and began arguing with another. The man then took out a gun and fired multiple times," the Los Angeles Times reported.
