• Hit Shooting – 2100 block of Lemon Av – On Feb. 2, 2024, at around 9:43 pm, officers responded to a report of a hit shooting on the 2100 block of Lemon Av.  Officers located an adult male victim with a gunshot wound to his upper body.  LBFD Paramedics treated the victim and transported him to a local hospital with a non- life-threatening injury.  The preliminary investigation indicates that the victim was in a verbal dispute with a group of four suspects.  One of the suspects produced a firearm and shot the victim, before all suspects fled the area.  Detectives responded to the scene, and the investigation is on-going.  There is no further suspect information currently.

This information is preliminary and is intended for early information use rather than being a formal investigative report.
