Deputies with the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department shot a person in West Hollywood on Saturday, authorities confirmed.

According to LASD Public Information Officer Veronica Fantom, the shooting happened at about 5:45 p.m. An exact location was not immediately made available.

It was not clear whether the person shot was armed or if they also fired shots toward the deputies. The person was transported to a local hospital, where their condition is unknown as of 8:55 p.m.

All deputies were accounted for, Fantom said. It was unclear whether any other injuries were sustained.

Two people are in critical condition and three others were also hurt after a food truck exploded early Saturday morning, authorities say. 

Preliminary information indicates that first responders were dispatched to the 6700 block of Greenleaf Avenue in Whittier at 9:15 a.m. on reports of a food truck that had exploded. 

Few details about the explosion were released, but a Los Angeles County Fire Department spokesperson told KTLA that five people were injured, including two in critical condition. 

Two other victims were in moderate condition and the fifth victim was said to have sustained minor injuries. 

Footage from the scene shows Whittier Police Department squad cars and caution tape blocking off the area surrounding the food truck. 

The investigation into what caused the explosion remains in its preliminary stages.

The Los Angeles Police Department is investigating a shooting and robbery that left two teens injured at a street takeover.

According to an LAPD spokesperson, officers responded to the scene of a multi-victim shooting near 54^th Street and Western Avenue in the Vermont Square neighborhood around 12:30 a.m. Saturday.  

Simultaneously, other officers were dispatched to a local hospital on reports of gunshot wound victims, the spokesperson stated. 

“Upon further investigation, both victims were at a street takeover when three Hispanic males approached them and robbed them of their jewelry,” LAPD said.  “A suspect pulled out a gun and fired at both of the teens, striking them.” 

One of the victims threw an object at the vehicle after being shot, police added. 

The victims, described as two 15-year-old boys, transported themselves to the hospital. Law enforcement officials told KTLA 5’s Carlos Herrera that the boys are “fighting for their lives.”

Whether the shooting was gang-related is not known, and no further information surrounding the suspects or their vehicle was released.
