LAPD confirms same suspect connected to deadly shootings in Koreatown, Mid-Wilshire
LOS ANGELES - Detectives with the Los Angeles Police Department were investigating the deadly shooting of a woman who was found inside a parked vehicle in Koreatown Tuesday night. Later in the investigation, they determined the same suspect was connected to another deadly shooting in the Mid-Wilshire area after he turned himself in.
The suspect has been identified as 50-year-old Marvin Magana, a Los Angeles resident.
LAPD officials said Magana walked into the 77th Division station and turned himself in for the Koreatown shooting just before 11 p.m. Tuesday.
Responding officers discovered the shooting victim, identified as a 38-year-old woman, inside a blue sedan on the 800 block of S. Berendo Street. The woman, who has not been publicly identified, was pronounced dead by Los Angeles City Fire paramedics after suffering from multiple gunshot wounds.
LAPD investigators then determined he may be connected to another shooting that happened hours prior. The second shooting happened in the upscale Windsor Square neighborhood, in the Mid-Wilshire area, earlier on Tuesday around 4:20 p.m. near the intersection of S. Victoria Avenue and W. Olympic Boulevard.
