Police are searching for whoever killed a man who was found on a driveway in Pasadena with a gunshot wound Monday night.
Authorities were alerted to the incident in the 1700 block of North Fair Oaks Avenue by the city’s ShotSpotter gunfire-detection system at about 8:42 p.m., Pasadena Police Department Lt. Taglioretti said.
The ShotSpotter system consists of a series of sensors set up around the city that alerts the Police Department when shots are fired.
Arriving officers found a man with at least one gunshot wound down in the driveway of an apartment building.
The victim, later identified by the L.A. County coroner’s office as 28-year-old Eric Lynn Thomas, was pronounced dead at the scene, Taglioretti said.
No information was available on a possible motive for the shooting.
Investigators have not released a description of the shooting suspect or suspects.
Anyone with information about the deadly shooting is urged to contact the Pasadena Police Department at 626-744-4241. You can also submit an anonymous tip online at LACrimestoppers.org.
