LOS ANGELES—Three Chicago men with reputed gang ties in that area were in custody Friday and awaiting extradition to Los Angeles to face multiple murder charges stemming from an “ambush-style” shooting in the Beverly Crest area that left three women dead.
One of the suspects is also believed to be connected to the December killing of a man—also from Chicago—in North Hollywood, police said. Both shootings are believed to be tied to gang activity originating in Chicago, with all of the suspects and the targeted victims from that city, according to investigators.
