Two men were wounded late Saturday in an apparently gang-related shooting in Altadena, officials said.

The attack was reported about 10:45 p.m. in the 700 block of West Harriet Street, Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Lt. Angela Shepherd said.

Two men were standing in the area when a green, 4-door sedan approached, she said.

Shots came from inside the car, wounding both pedestrians, the lieutenant said.

Following the shooting, the car continued down the street and crashed into another vehicle, Shepherd said.

Two occupants described only as male blacks were seen running from the crashed car, she said.

The wounded men were treated at a hospital and released the next day, she added.

No further details were available Sunday.
