There was no further description of the woman.

Officers were dispatched about 1:20 p.m. Saturday to a Vons parking lot at 410 Manhattan Beach Blvd. regarding a shooting, Hartnell said.

"The investigation revealed a female subject and a male subject involved in a dating relationship were parked together in a vehicle somewhere by the beach," he said. "An argument escalated at which time the male subject produced a handgun and shot the female in the lower abdomen."

Ahmyae Uriah Barner of Long Beach was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder, he said.

Barner was being held on $1 million bail at the Twin Towers Correctional Facility, 450 Bauchet St., in downtown Los Angeles, according to the sheriff's Inmate Locator.

His court date was scheduled for Nov. 11 at Torrance Municipal Court, 825 Maple Ave.
