(January 11, 2017, 4:45 p.m.) -- While Long Beach Mayor Robert Garcia was delivering his "State of the City" message downtown describing the "city of the future," a North Long Beach neighborhood was experiencing Long Beach of the present with a double-shooting that left a woman dead and a man wounded.

LBPD Public Information Officer Sgt. Brad Johnson tells LBREPORT.com that on Jan. 10 at roughly 7:25 p.m., officers responded to the 6300 block of Knight Ave. (south of Ramona Park) regarding two adults who'd been shot. LBFD pronounced one of the victims, a woman, dead at the scene; it transported the other victim, a man, to a hospital, and he was last reported in critical condition.

LBPD says individuals at the scene detained a male suspect (adult) and LBPD took him into custody.

PIO Johnson says LBPD does NOT believe what took place was gang related. The relationship between the victims and suspect is still to be determined and LBPD's investigation is ongoing.
