A man is dead and a woman injured after an apparent road-rage incident, according to police.
On March 7, at approximately 4:12pm, Long Beach Police Department (LBPD) officers were dispatched to the 200 block of Liberty Court regarding a “shots fired” call.
Upon arrival, officers found two victims with apparent gunshot wounds. The first victim, a male adult, was determined deceased at the scene with a gunshot wound to the upper torso. The second victim, a female adult, had gunshot wounds to her upper and lower torso. The Long Beach Fire Department transported her to a local hospital, where she is listed in serious but stable condition.
The deceased victim has been identified as Trevor McCrainey, a 22-year-old resident of Long Beach.
The motive for the case is still under investigation but may be an incident of road rage, after the victims and suspect/s got into an argument at a different location just prior to the shooting.
Those with information regarding the incident are asked to contact Homicide Detectives Malcolm Evans and Robert Gonzales at (562) 570-7244. Anyone wishing to remain anonymous may submit a tip through “LA Crime Stoppers” by calling 1-800-222-TIPS (8477), downloading the “P3 Tips” app to a smart phone or visiting lacrimestoppers.org.
