BRIEFLY : TWO GUNMEN IN CAR WOUND 3 IN SPREE.


PACOIMA - Police on Sunday were searching for two men in a white Suburban who are suspected of wounding three people in a Saturday night shooting spree at three separate Pacoima locations, police said.

``Our officers are still beating the bushes trying to find these guys,'' said Sgt. Wes Buhrmester of the Los Angeles Los Angeles (lôs ăn`jələs, lŏs, ăn`jəlēz'), city (1990 pop. 3,485,398), seat of Los Angeles co., S Calif.; inc. 1850.  Police Department's Foothill Division.

Two of the wounded people were treated at local hospitals and released. A third, shot in the upper body, was wounded more seriously, but Buhrmester said he was in stable condition Sunday and is expected to recover.

Police said it is not clear whether the victims were known to the shooters or were targeted at random. Police said none of the victims, all male Latinos in their 20s, was immediately linked to any gang.

``We believe that gang members are involved in the shootings, but there hasn't been a definitive gang link with the victims,'' Buhrmester said.

The shootings occurred between 9 and 10 p.m. at several different locations in Pacoima. Buhrmester said the suspects shot several rounds at the victims.

``They just drove by and shot at them, not really taking aim,'' Buhrmester said.

At Laurel Canyon Boulevard Laurel Canyon Boulevard is a major street in the city of Los Angeles, California. It starts off at Polk Street in Sylmar in the northern San Fernando Valley near the junction of the San Diego (Interstate 405) and the Golden State Freeways (Interstate 5).  near Terra Bella Street, shots fired from the Suburban hit two people. Minutes earlier, in the 13800 block of Desmond Street, another victim was hit in the thigh.

Shots from the same vehicle were reported at Kewen Avenue and Kagel Canyon Street, but no one was hit at that location, said Lt. Don Lehman of the Foothill Division.

The four-door white Suburban had dealer plates, Lehman said.
