One dead and one wounded in Glassell Park shooting. By Richard Winton and Alicia Banks
December 5, 2013, 6:25 p.m. Reality TV writer and director James Marcus Howe and his wife were inside their Glassell Park home when a salesman knocked on the door.  It was the Wednesday morning before Thanksgiving. Within minutes, Howe was dead and his wife seriously wounded. When Howe and his wife approached the front door, they saw only the man alone. Within seconds, another man and a woman forced their way inside, police said. As an ensuing altercation quickly escalated, one of the men pulled out a handgun. A barrage of bullets flew just inside the doorway of the home the couple shared with their 6-year-old son, investigators said. Howe died at the scene, and his wife was rushed to the hospital, seriously wounded. She survived.








Covina home-invasion robbery suspect shoots girl, father Friday, December 06, 2013 Leanne Suter and Sid Garcia  COVINA, Calif. (KABC) -- A father and his 2-year-old daughter were injured in a shooting during a home-invasion robbery on the 300 block of South Cedar Drive in Covina at about 12:30 p.m. Friday. Investigators say a man in his early 20s and his 2-year-old daughter were hurt in the shooting. The girl suffered a non-life-threatening gunshot wound to her leg. The man was shot in the chest. They were both hospitalized in stable condition. "A male black in his early 20s who actually came to the residence, knocked on the door, was allowed in," said Covina Police Sgt. Ray Marquez. "As the residents opened the door, the subject came in and obviously used an unknown type of weapon to shoot both of these victims."
