Norwalk Sheriff’s Deputies converged on the 14500 block of Alburtis Street in Norwalk on Wednesday night after a shooting left two teenage males with gunshot wounds.
According to Norwalk Sheriff’s Captain Patrick Maxwell, Deputies responded to the call of “shots fired” and on arrival found the two victims located three blocks away at 14600 Jersey Avenue.
The victims are described as a male Black, age 19 and a male Hispanic, age 18.
Maxwell told the La Mirada Lamplighter that the two victims were transported to St. Francis for surgery. There conditions are now known as of midnight.
“The investigation is ongoing,” said Maxwell.
Norwalk Sheriff’s believe that the suspects are two male Hispanics possibly driving a maroon or burgundy late 1990’s Camaro.
The Lamplighter will have additional updates as they develop.
