Police: Fourth person dies as result of Los Angeles shooting

LOS ANGELES – Police say a fourth person has died from wounds suffered when gunfire broke out during a dispute that erupted at a birthday party inside a Los Angeles home operating as a restaurant.

Officer Sal Ramirez confirmed Monday that a fourth person died as a result of the shooting early Saturday. Ramirez says the victim’s name has not been released, and he has no further details.

The shooting broke out during the birthday party at the restaurant that operates out of a converted home, hosting parties for members of Los Angeles’ Jamaican community.

On Sunday, police arrested two suspects in connection with the shooting, which left more than 10 other people wounded.

Police say an unspecified dispute between a man and at least two other men led to the gunfire.
