An 8-year-old girl remains listed in stable condition at Children's Hospital today after she was "wounded in crossfire during a shootout between LAPD narcotics officers and three suspects," according to the Daily News. The child "was struck in the chest and suffered a bruised lung," when officers returned fire on suspects who shot at them from inside a black 1998 four-door Toyota police had followed into an alley in the North University Park area around 7 last night. Because the girl was "behind police officers during the altercation," early reports indicate she was "wounded by shots fired by the suspects toward police." The unnamed victim had reportedly asked her older sibling if she could play outside just a few more minutes when the incident took place. She is expected to survive.

I don't know if it was all those Ikea fish eggs I consumed this weekend, but I was definitely ready to be in a Swedish frame of mind Monday night at the El Rey, where Anna Ternheim and Lykke Li opened for El Perro Del Mar. All three artists are representing a new wave of Scandinavian indie pop, with danceable rhythms, melancholic lyrics, and a moody, sensual sound that feels like a cold, fresh breeze on the pop landscape. Abba they ain't, but Robyn sure likes to hang with them.

At 4:20 a.m. this morning, another student found a young 18 to 20-year-old woman lying unconscious on the ground. While officers were not able to speak to her because she did not regain consciousness until later during transport, they are considering all options of investigation, including rape. Authorities are unsure whether she was indeed physically attacked or if she could have become intoxicated and passed out, but police are "treating it as a crime scene,"...

While this is hardly the first time a bare midriff and cheap dye-job have swayed an otherwise discerning focus, we at LAist would like to commend this cameraperson for their pro-obscenity stance and their “fair & balanced” coverage of today's Eagles/Saints game. Bravo. Down with FCC regulation. Down with sportsmanship. Down with spelling. Up with people. Go Birds. Photos by Jeremy Weinstein...
