A man was shot and killed after attempting to carjack a vehicle that was
stopped at a red light in Compton, authorities said Monday.
Deputies responded to the intersection of Compton Boulevard and Santa Fe Avenue Sunday night after receiving a report of gunshots in the area, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department. They arrived shortly before 9 p.m. and found a man lying in the intersection.
The man sustained at least one gunshot wound and "appeared to have been struck by at least one vehicle that fled the scene," the department said in a press release.
Investigators later learned that the man was reportedly armed with a handgun and was shot during the attempted carjacking, authorities added.
It's unclear if the man died as a result of being shot or being hit by a car.
The driver who was stopped at the red light stayed at the scene and was to be interviewed by investigators, authorities said.

A guy in a League City killed a car jacker in a McDonalds drive through. His toddler son was in the passenger kid carrier when the door was opened. The Dad blew the shitbird car jacker to Hell. Cops took his statement at McDonalds and cut him loose with his Happy Meal. They don't play in League City which has the largest number of CC permits per capita in Texas.
