Police are looking for a moped driver who shot a woman in a car multiple times in downtown Los Angeles, authorities said.
The shooting happened near the 300 block of North Figueroa Street around 5:30 p.m. on the evening of Oct. 30, according to the Los Angeles Police Department, which released surveillance video footage of the shooter on Wednesday. LAPD said the suspect opened fire on the victim as she sat in her car waiting to pick up her brother from work.
She was rushed to a hospital, where police said she was in stable condition.
In a statement, LAPD described the shooter as a man between 30 and 40 years old, who was wearing a bright yellow vest, face mask and gloves at the time of the shooting.
It is unclear what led to the shooting or whether the suspect and victim knew each other, as police have not released any further details as the investigation continues.
