4 shot outside party following Justin Bieber concert; LA police say victims 'stable'

LOS ANGELES — Four people were shot and wounded early Saturday after a fight broke out outside a Los Angeles restaurant hosting a party that followed a Justin Bieber Super Bowl weekend concert, police said.

The gunfire erupted outside The Nice Guy restaurant, striking and injuring four men ages 60, 19, 20 and 22, LAPD Officer Lizeth Lomeli said. Their names were not released.

Officers responded to the gunshots around 2:45 a.m and found two victims. Paramedics took them to the hospital for treatment of non-life-threatening injuries, police said in an updated statement Saturday afternoon.

Two additional victims went to hospitals on their own, according to the statement. All four victims were listed in stable condition.

Detectives asked witnesses to come forward to help them identify the gunman.

No suspect has been identified.

The party followed Bieber’s private concert at the Pacific Design Center in West Hollywood, California, as part of a Super Bowl-week party dubbed “Homecoming Weekend.” Guests at the star-studded event included Jeff Bezos, his girlfriend TV host Lauren Sánchez, “Hamilton” actor Anthony Ramos and NFL Hall of Famer Tony Gonzalez.

The invite-only guests at Friday’s event crushed around a small stage-in-the-round under a tent to get close to Bieber, who hopped, bopped and shimmied through a 45-minute set as the evening’s headliner.

It was one of many entertainment events leading up to Sunday’s Super Bowl at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, the first in the Los Angeles area in nearly three decades, with the hometown Los Angeles Rams playing the Cincinnati Bengals.

The "Homecoming Weekend" concert event is expected to carry on with the second night of performances with Drake headlining Saturday.
