LOS ANGELES (KNX) – Detectives are searching for a man accused of shooting and injuring a 60-year-old.

On Sept. 18 around 10:45 p.m., officers responded to a reported shooting at Western Avenue and 48th Street. Upon arriving, officers saw a street-take over disperse and a man on the sidewalk with a gunshot wound, the Los Angeles Police Department said.
