Los Angeles and Torrance Police were involved in two shootings in Torrance early Thursday morning after police came across vehicles similar to one sought by authorities in a manhunt for ex-LAPD officer suspected of shooting three other officers.

Neither incident involved the suspect, Christopher Jordan Dorner who was at large
Thursday morning.

The first incident occurred about 5:30 a.m. in the 19500 block of Redbeam Avenue and
involved two women delivering newspapers in a blue pickup.

The women were shot by LAPD one in the hand, the other in the back.

Both were taken to local hospitals and are in critical condition.

The pickup was riddled with bullet holes and what appeared to newspapers were in the
street.

Police said the women were riding in a truck similar to the one that suspect Christopher
Jordan Dorner is believed to be driving.

The second incident, involved Torrance police at Flagler Lane and Beryl Street
about 5:45 a.m.

No injuries were reported in the second incident.
