CANOGA PARK (CNS) - A man was hospitalized in critical condition Wednesday after he was shot and then run over at an Arco gas station in Canoga Park.

Los Angeles Police officers were called at 1 a.m. to Vanowen Street and Independence Avenue where they learned the victim and another person were buying items from the store's outside window when multiple suspects, some who drove up to the station and others who were already at the mini-mart, began arguing with the victim, LAPD Officer Rosario Cervantes told City News Service.

At some point the suspects shot the victim and then ran him over before driving away in what police say was a white vehicle, possibly a BMW.

According to Fox 11, detectives later found an Alfa Romeo SUV blocks away with bullet holes in the windshield, which might belong to the victim or the person with the victim.

Los Angeles Fire Department paramedics took the man to a hospital.

There was no suspect description.
