Compton Shooting: The authorities were looking for the shooter who carried out the Compton shooting on Thursday that sent five people to the hospital. At around 2:30 p.m., Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department officers were summoned to the 1000 block of Acacia Avenue in response to allegations of a fatal weapon attack and a victim with a gunshot wound.
