1 dead, 2 injured after bar shooting in San Pedro 

A man died and two other victims were wounded after a woman opened fire at a bar in San Pedro early Saturday morning. 

According to a spokesperson from the Los Angeles Police Department, gunfire erupted around 12:15 a.m. at Machista, located on the corner of Pacific Avenue and West 10th Street. 


“There was a physical altercation inside the bar before the shooting,” the LAPD spokesperson confirmed to KTLA. “The suspect fired multiple rounds, striking three people.” 

One of the victims, only identified as a man in his 30s, was pronounced dead at the scene, authorities said. 

The two other people who were struck, a woman and another man, both transported themselves to a local hospital in stable condition. 

A perimeter was established while officers began the search for the suspect, described as a 20- to 30-year-old Hispanic woman, before it was determined that she fled the area. 

As of 6 a.m. Saturday, she had not been located.  

Pacific Avenue remains closed between 9th and 11th Streets while the investigation continues. 

Anyone with information is asked to contact the LAPD.
