Two dead after shooting at private party in Northridge strip mall
LAPD identifies two victims aged 18 to 25; possible third victim remains unlocated as investigation continues.
Two people, a man and a woman both between 18 and 25, were killed in a Friday evening shooting at a private party held at the Artist Lounge in a Northridge strip mall, less than a mile from Cal State Northridge.
Los Angeles Police Department officers responded to a call of possible shots fired on the 18000 block of Nordhoff Street shortly after 11 p.m. and found the victims at the scene. A possible third victim was reported but not located as of Saturday morning, and no other injuries were reported.
According to CBS News, the shooting occurred during a party upstairs at the venue. OnScene Media reported that police cleared the event, removed over 100 attendees individually, detained some, and placed several in zip ties in the parking lot while awaiting investigation. Many attendees appeared to be minors and were later picked up by parents.
As of Saturday, LAPD confirmed no arrests have been made. The Artist Lounge had not responded to requests for comment.
