Crime

Long Beach police are investigating after a gunman opened fire on a group of people a few blocks away from Washington Middle School Monday night. The gunfire started around around 8 p.m. near 15th Street and Daisy Avenue, according to Long Beach Police Department spokeswoman Nancy Pratt. That's when a gunman approached the group of men or boys and started shooting but apparently missed, she said. Nobody reported being wounded, according to Pratt. The gunman fled on foot before police arrived, she said. Investigators think the shooting may be gang-related, according to Pratt. Police couldn't immediately provide a description of the gunman.
