1 injured after gunfire erupts outside Southern California bowling alley

People inside a Torrance bowling alley ducked for cover when gunfire erupted in the parking lot Saturday night, authorities confirmed to KTLA.

Officers with the Torrance Police Department responded to Bowlero, a bowling alley, arcade and event center at 21915 S. Western Ave., just before midnight, TPD said in a statement to KTLA.

Video of the incident posted to TikTok by Benny Huerta showed bowlers huddling on the ground inside the business as security sprinted toward the door.

When police arrived at the location, they discovered an adult male suffering from a non-life-threatening gunshot wound in the parking lot.
