Police kill gunman who fired at Hollywood traffic

 

A 26-year-old man was shot dead by police in Hollywood after he opened fire on traffic on Sunset Boulevard. Investigators are trying to determine a motive for the attack, which some people thought was part of a movie.

"This is Hollywood, and they do film stuff all the time," said one witness, who was walking along the street when the shooting began. "I honestly thought they were filming something." At least one other witness filmed the incident and has released the footage to the police.
