FAMILY ROBBED AT GUNPOINT = Los angeles
Police released video Friday in their search for assailants captured by security cameras as they robbed a couple walking with their toddler in downtown Los Angeles, pistol whipping and shooting one of the victims.
The attack occurred just after 3 p.m. Thursday as a man and woman in their 20s were shopping in the area of Seventh and Hill streets with their 2-year-old son, according to the L.A. Police Department.
Two people got out of a gray Chrysler 300 and aimed handguns at the family, then stole their belongings, investigators said.
The father was pistol whipped on the head and shot in the arm, while the woman was able to escape to safety with her son, LAPD said.
