Two Duarte Men Wounded in Pasadena Shooting

Two men were critically wounded Saturday in a car-to-car shooting in Pasadena, authorities said.
The shooting was reported about 4:10 p.m. in the 1500 block of Lake Avenue, said Pasadena police Lt. Carolyn Gordon.
The preliminary investigation indicated that two Duarte residents, ages 23 and 24, were stopped in their vehicle when a late-model sedan drove up behind them and someone inside fired multiple times into their vehicle, Gordon said.
There were at least two suspects in the sedan, she said.
“Detectives do not believe the shooting was random,” Gordon said. They are investigating whether it was gang related.
Paramedics took both victims to a hospital in critical condition, she said.
Lake Avenue was closed between Rio Grande and Elizabeth streets for a police investigation, Gordon said. It was reopened about 9 p.m.
