Homicide detectives are investigating the death of man who was shot shortly after he had been spinning his car in circles outside his Compton home, authorities said.
The shooting occurred in the 1600 block of Mona Boulevard near Rosecrans Avenue, and was reported about 11:30 p.m. Friday, said Los Angeles County Sheriff's Deputy Derrick Thompson said. Before the shooting, the man had been doing “doughnuts,” a maneuver in which the rear of a car rotates around the front wheels continuously, creating circular skid marks.
Three men approached the man after he had parked his car on the driveway and shot him multiple times, Thompson said. The three then fled on foot, he said. Paramedics took the man to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
