SYLMAR — Two men were found fatally shot at a Sylmar home early Sunday, Los Angeles police said.
Nick Frontuto, 20, of Sylmar, was found dead of a gunshot wound to his upper body about 3:25 a.m. at a home in the 13000 block of Almetz Street, said LAPD Sgt. Frank Reynoso.
Police did not know whether Frontuto lived at the home.
The second victim, Victor Rosa, an 18-year-old from Sun Valley who had also been shot in the upper body, was taken from the home to Providence Holy Cross Medical Center, where he died a short time later, police said.
Reynoso said homicide investigators did not know of a motive for the killings. No suspects were in custody late Sunday.
