FOUNTAIN VALLEY — A 34-year-old Los Angeles man was killed and a 26-year-old Anaheim man was wounded in a drive-by shooting Saturday evening at Mile Square Park in Fountain Valley.
The Orange County Sheriff’s Department, which would not release the identity of either man, is seeking five men in connection with the shooting.
Lt. William Francis said the victims and suspects are Vietnamese and apparently knew each other.
“We have good eyeball witnesses” to the shooting, Francis said. He said the department could not say whether the shooting was gang-related.
The shooting took place about 6:30 p.m. near Euclid Avenue and Heil Street. The Los Angeles man was taken to Fountain Valley Regional Hospital and Medical Center, where he died. The Anaheim man was flown by helicopter to UCI Medical Center in Orange, where he was reported in stable condition.
