Shooting at Carson street takeover leaves 1 dead, 6 injured

A shooting near an apparent street takeover in Carson left a man dead and several others injured early Sunday morning, authorities said.

According to the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, deputies responded to the intersection of Charles Willard Street and Harmon Avenue at about 3 a.m.

Upon arrival, deputies found a man suffering from at least one gunshot wound. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

He's yet to be identified publicly, but family members told CBS LA that the victim was a 22-year-old man.

The LASD said two others were transported to a local hospital in critical condition.

As the investigation continued, the LASD learned that four others had self-transported to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. At least one of the victims is a 16-year-old, authorities said, but it's not clear if they are one of the two who are critically injured.

The circumstances of the shootings remain unknown.

No additional details were immediately made available.
