Disturbing footage captured at the scene shows emergency medical services attempting to revive the victim, but unfortunately, their efforts were in vain. The senseless violence has left friends and loved ones devastated. A friend of the security guard expressed their disbelief, saying, "It was brutal, that shouldn't even happen. They should've just let it go, just walk away. He had a life to live. I don't know how they felt, but...he got two kids to go home to. Now he can't even see his kids no more."
The motive behind the attack remains unclear, and no arrests have been made thus far. The Los Angeles Police Department is urging anyone with information about the incident to come forward and assist with their investigation.
