Four men were shot — one fatally — after two of them volunteered to paint over graffiti on the wall of a neighborhood ice cream shop in Los Angeles, authorities said.
The gunfire erupted Saturday afternoon in the Northridge area of the San Fernando Valley, according to the Los Angeles Police Department.
Shortly before the shooting, two of the men walked into Northridge Ice Cream, the shop's owner, Victor Santoyo, told ABC 7.

"They said, ‘There is graffiti on the wall. Do you want me to paint the graffiti for you, for free,’" Santoyo said. "I found them a little bit of paint and gave it to them, and then a few minutes later, we hear the gunshots."
A few minutes later, the four men are seen on surveillance video ducking from gunshots, the news station reported.
