3 Men Found Shot to Death in Paramount

Three men were found dead Thursday in a house in Paramount in an apparently drug-related shooting, Los Angeles County sheriff’s deputies said.

Officers responded to a call of shots being fired at a residence in the 15000 block of San Jose Avenue and found three men shot to death in a bedroom, Deputy Rafael Estrada said. The unidentified men lived at the house, he said.

Deputies found nearly nine pounds of cocaine and a .38-caliber automatic pistol. One victim had a 9-millimeter pistol in his waistband, Estrada said.

There were no suspects, but homicide investigators were suspicious of a red Pontiac Firebird parked at the residence that Estrada said “doesn’t belong there.”
