LOS ANGELES, Dec 15, 2011 (AFP) - Shots were fired at or near the Chinese consulate in Los Angeles on Thursday, but no one was injured, police said, adding that an Asian suspect was being sought.
"It was a shooting at the building" housing the consulate general, which is between downtown LA and Hollywood, said Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) spokesman Norma Eisenman, adding: "No one was hurt."
Police were hunting for a suspect described as an Asian man about 65 years old with white hair, he said.
The consulate was not immediately reachable for comment about the incident.
