Violent weekend hits area 

Local perspective:

This shooting comes after a violent weekend in South LA left two dead, including a 13-year-old girl. 

Over the weekend, three shootings occurred within a mile of each other. 

A 13-year-old girl was shot in the head while sitting inside her house Friday night. 

Police said the girl was not targeted, and the bullets appeared to have been meant for a group of people on the sidewalk nearby. That shooting occurred near E. 108th Street and McKinley Avenue.

The body of a woman shot several times was found near San Pedro between 102nd and 103rd, police said. A memorial has since been created there. 

After that one, a witness said there was another shooting up the street. 

Police said early Sunday morning, a man was shot next to his truck near 108th Street. It happened when he was parked right across the street from the Southeast LAPD Community Station.
