Shooter Hits People in Line for Hollywood Club with BB Gun

The gunman shot at their arms and legs, and the people were treated at the scene.

Three people were shot with a BB gun while they were standing in line for a club in Hollywood Saturday night, police said.

A man shot at three people in line for the Argyle Club in Hollywood with BB gun pellets, according to the Los Angeles Police Department’s Hollywood Division. The gunman shot at their arms and legs, and the people were treated at the scene.

One person in line said her friend got shot as they were standing in front of the club.

"We were waiting in line just to get into this party, and he felt something sting him on the back of his shoulder," Madison Calley said. "And somebody who walked by before us said that he got shot with something previously, and he said he thought it was a BB gun."

Argyle Avenue at Hollywood Boulevard was closed while authorities searched for the gunman, according to LAPD's Hollywood Division. They believed he was in the upper floor of an adjacent apartment building next to the W Hotel.

NBC4 is working to confirm if anyone was arrested in the crime.
