Patrol officers found one victim, a 34-year-old male gravely wounded in the area, Officer John Buttle said. Paramedics took him to a trauma center, where he was pronounced dead.
The second person wounded in the shooting showed up at a hospital later for treatment of injuries of undisclosed severity.

The car then continued westbound on Ocean View Boulevard.
