Three Men Wounded in Shooting Outside Los Arcos Restaurant in East Los Angeles; Collision Injures Three Deputies

In East Los Angeles, a distressing event unfolded overnight as three men were victims of a shooting. The incident led to injuries not only for those directly involved but also for several deputies during their response.

The shooting occurred after a dispute outside the Los Arcos Restaurant, located at the intersection of Whittier and Gerhart boulevards. This incident took place around 1 a.m. on Monday.

Following the shooting, the injured individuals sought refuge inside the restaurant. Among the victims, two were urgently taken to the hospital, their injuries deemed non-life-threatening. A third individual, found in a truck at a Shell gas station on Atlantic Boulevard, was also hospitalized. The circumstances of how the victim arrived at the gas station remain unclear.

In a twist of fate, while deputies rushed to the scene, two patrol vehicles collided approximately a mile from the shooting location. The crash resulted in moderate injuries to three deputies, necessitating hospital treatment.

Despite the chaos, there is a silver lining as all shooting victims are expected to recover fully.

The search continues for two suspects linked to the shooting, with their connection to gang activities still under investigation.
