23-Year-Old Man Stabbed To Death In Hollywood
A 23-year-old man was stabbed to death during a fight in Hollywood early this morning, according to City News Service.
The man, who has not been identified, was found by officials at about 2:30 a.m. near Hollywood and Whitley. He had been inflicted with multiple stab wounds, and was rushed to a nearby hospital where he later died.
It's not clear what prompted the attack, or if any suspects are in custody. The man had been stabbed during a fight, although details of the fight have not been released.
At LAist, we believe in journalism without censorship and the right of a free press to speak truth to those in power. Our hard-hitting watchdog reporting on local government, climate, and the ongoing housing and homelessness crisis is trustworthy, independent and freely accessible to everyone thanks to the support of readers like you.
But the game has changed: Congress voted to eliminate funding for public media across the country. Here at LAist that means a loss of $1.7 million in our budget every year. We want to assure you that despite growing threats to free press and free speech, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust. Speaking frankly, the amount of reader support we receive will help determine how strong of a newsroom we are going forward to cover the important news in our community.
We’re asking you to stand up for independent reporting that will not be silenced. With more individuals like you supporting this public service, we can continue to provide essential coverage for Southern Californians that you can’t find anywhere else. Become a monthly member today to help sustain this mission.
Thank you for your generous support and belief in the value of independent news.
