LOS ANGELES, CA — Four teenagers attacked a man and one stabbed him to death in South Los Angeles, and the brutal attack was captured on video. Now Los Angeles police hope someone will recognize the killers and come forward with information leading to their arrest. Video of the attack shows four young teens, including a girl in a pink t-shirt and a boy in a black hoodie, chasing 33-year-old Dominic Lord up and down the street. Lord died April 1 after being stabbed by the youths in the rea of West 89th Street and Western Avenue, near St. Andrews Recreation Center, according to investigators. Police were called to the scene on a report of an assault with a deadly weapon shortly after 6 p.m. By the time they arrived, paramedics had taken Lord to a hospital to be treated for at least one stab wound. Investigators discovered surveillance video that showed Lord and the four suspects exit a bus at West 89th Street and Western Avenue before an argument erupted. Video from the scene shows four young teenagers — two boys and two girls, chase and surround Lord. He fell to the ground and was stabbed by one of the teens, who then fled. "Unfortunately, Lord failed to respond to medical aid and was pronounced dead at the hospital," police said. All four suspects fled following the stabbing and were last seen traveling eastbound on Manchester Avenue, east of Harvard Boulevard, according to the LAPD. Anyone with information on the stabbing was asked to call LAPD Detectives Mendoza or Rose at 323-786-5113. Calls during non-business hours or on weekends should be made to 877-527-3247. Anonymous tips can be called in to Crime Stoppers at 800-222-8477 or submitted online at lacrimestoppers.org. City News Service and Patch Staffer Paige Austin contributed to this report.
