LOS ANGELES—Los Angeles police are investigating whether a shooting in the parking lot of a San Fernando Valley hospital is gang-related.

Deputy Chief Kirk Albanese said no one was injured in Wednesday's attack outside Valley Presbyterian Hospital in Van Nuys. He said a gunman opened fire at a group of people who were sitting on a bench in the parking lot. The victims, who were visiting a patient, said the gunman yelled a gang name before firing. They said they ran into the hospital lobby to escape.

Albanese said the gunman fled in a vehicle with at least four others.

He said detectives were interviewing the victims to determine their connection to the gunman.
