About an hour earlier, officers were called to the 18500 block of Sherman Way, near Reseda Boulevard, where two men were shot during an attempted robbery by three suspects near a tattoo shop, according to police and reports
from the scene.
The men were hospitalized in stable condition and later released, police said.
Police determined the three suspects, two of whom were armed, got out of a gray sedan and confronted the victims. One suspect attempted to grab a victim's necklaces and remove them from his neck immediately before the shooting.
No arrests have been reported in either crime. Anyone with information on the shootings was urged to call 877-LAPD-247.
