Staples Center president Lee Zeidman tells KNX the ceremony will not be shown on outdoor screens for people who can't get in.

The 29-year-old suspect, Eric Holder, was charged with one count of murder, two counts of attempted murder and one count of possession of a firearm by a felon. The criminal complaint also includes allegations that he personally used a firearm and caused great bodily injury and death.
