Taggers Shoot Man in Hollywood

Confronting the paparazzi is one thing, but to confront a tagger always leads to the same headline: someone is shot trying to interfere with a tagger. Yesterday, a businessman confronted two taggers who were defacing a business near Hollywood and Vine. He's currently in the hospital in "critical but stable condition," according to Ruby Malachi at the LAPD. Detectives have some good leads and did serve one search warrant last night in Tujunga, but no arrests were made. Malachi says that if you see tagging in action, do not approach, but call 911 and give the best description you can (clothing, license plate, tattoos, etc).
