The victims arrived and met with the suspect – identified 34-year-old Mark Connole of Woodland Hills – for what police believe was a drug deal.
An argument ensued and shots were fired. Three people sustained non-life-threatening injuries and were transported to a local hospital for treatment. Los Angeles Fire Department Paramedics pronounced a fourth victim dead at the scene.
The suspect was seen fleeing the area in a red Honda. A short police pursuit ensued before the driver pulled over and was taken into custody. Connole was booked at Van Nuys jail on suspicion of murder. His bail has been set at $2 million.
