City and county crews are preparing a sweep of homeless encampments near the Los Angeles River south of Anaheim Street in Long Beach, even as the city’s homeless shelters are near capacity and the temporary winter shelter is slated to close in a little more than a week.
Levester Lee Bolden, 45, was identified as suspect in the shooting and taken into custody near his home on 46th Street and Central Avenue in Los Angeles on suspicion of attempted murder, according to the LBPD’s arrest log.
Police say the motorcyclist was inside the garage on a three-wheeled Can-Am Ryker when she accelerated the vehicle and lost control before crashing head-on into a wall.
How the crash occurred was not immediately clear, however, authorities said witnesses explained that they were eating at the business when the car suddenly hit the building, causing debris to strike a man inside.
The shelter was placed under quarantine on March 17, and as a result, guests were restricted from leaving the facility through at least Wednesday, March 22.
In accordance with state law, the Seal Beach Police Department released roughly three minutes of video footage from a police officer’s body-worn camera, as well as excerpts of a 911 call prior to the shooting.
The teenagers, whose names were not released because they are juveniles, were taken into custody Thursday on suspicion of murdering Khalil Saleem, whose death shook the community in January.
