 "Gun shooting, mass shooting")
A woman was killed and four people were wounded in a Los Angeles County shooting shortly after the arrival of the new year, police said.
Officers from the Hawthorne Police Department responded to a shooting report around 12:30 am on Monday, KABC-TV reported.
The Hawthorne police said a male victim who suffered gunshot wounds was transported to a hospital from the scene near a shopping mall on Crenshaw Boulevard and Rosecrans Avenue, KABC reported.

There were no immediate arrests in the shooting, which was being investigated by the sheriff's department.
