South Los Angeles: Man shot outside bar

Raymond Davis, a 22-year-old black man, was fatally shot in the 6600 block of South Vermont Avenue about 12:30 a.m. Sunday, Nov. 9.

Davis, of Inglewood, was standing outside the Safari Bar when shots were fired, and one of the rounds hit him in the stomach. He was pronounced dead at a hospital. Witnesses said they saw a man leave the area, driving north on Vermont Avenue in a black vehicle.

Anyone with information is asked to call the Los Angeles Police Department's South Bureau homicide unit at (213) 485-1383; during non-business hours call (877) LAPD-24-7.

what do you mean off of 6th and vermont. get you a navigational system or a map. the 6600 block of vermont is 60 blocks north off where you were. There is no JONS market in southcentral

man, this is heavy. a few seconds before this shooting, i went into the jons market off kenmore and catalina which is only a few blocks down. by the time i bought my guava juice and came back out the block was being taped off and an ambulance was rushing away. i'm 23..... this hits close to home. i may have even seen this dude in his final minutes out of the corner of my eye as i crossed 3rd. 6th and vermont is in plain view from me.. RIP.
