DOWNTOWN LOS ANGELES (KABC) — A suspect in a Harbor Gateway shooting that left three men dead and a fourth wounded has been arrested, the LAPD announced Saturday.

The suspect, 28-year-old Narada Brooks, was arrested Friday night at an apartment building in La Habra. He is charged with three counts of murder and is being held without bail.

Brooks’ connection to the victims is unclear, but investigators say it appears he acted alone.

“Just through the detectives’ follow-up, it appears that he is the only one wanted for the shooting,” said LAPD Officer Sarah Faden, adding that the investigation remains active.

IS A JAMAICAN DIS? – PHILLY, CAUGHT ON TAPE

Philadelphia News, Weather and Sports from WTXF FOX 29

It started as a birthday party. It ended in an argument and gunfire with a suspect randomly firing into a crowded “illegal” speak easy on the 500 block of Lindley Street in Olney. It was all caught on tape.

“We’re lucky we only have one victim right now,” said Lt. George McClay of Northwest Detectives. “Anything can happen to you in a place like this.”

Police say the suspect uses the street name “soldier” and he fired at least three shots, wounding one man and terrifying 30 others inside the makeshift club. He was caught on tape returning to the scene to recover a cell phone he dropped during the shooting.

“He now comes back into camera view. Picks up his cell phone and runs,” McClay explained.

“I heard the shots, saw the people running,” said David Ayers who was watching TV when he heard the gunshots. He lives right across the street with his son.

“You can’t have that running around the city. They city’s bad enough as it is,” he told FOX 29.

“This place has been under the radar,” McClay said.

Inspectors from the Department of Licenses and Inspections shut the place down. The owner of the building told FOX 29 he rents the place to another man, who installed the surveillance cameras. He did want to be identified.

“You can’t come to peoples’ place and shoot up peoples’ place, a birthday party. A party. That’s terrible,” he told reporter Dave Schratwieser in an exclusive interview.

Police believe the one story garage has been operating as a speak easy for a while. There’s two bars, a dance pole and big screen TV. Neighbors are glad it has been closed down.

“That’s what they have nightclubs for,” Ayers said. “Delaware Avenue’s got clubs open all night for stuff like that.”

“We have a great video. If I get a name, our complainant is willing to cooperate and we want to put this guy away,” McClay said.

Police describe the suspect as a muscular, Jamaican male, 6’2″ and weighing 200 pounds. He has a shaved head. Police say he uses the street name “soldier.” If you have any information on the suspect, you’re asked to call Northwest Detectives or 911..

7 Things Married People Won’t Tell You about Marriage

In this part of the world, we are more idealists than realists. If we face setbacks in business, we are comfortable with reciting the famous words, “it is well’. If rain soaks you on the way to the office, it’s ‘showers of blessings’ and a promotion is probably on the way. If our right palm itches, it means some long lost relative will send cash soon.

It is no wonder that for many ladies, marriage seems to be the escape from society’s pressures. Many of us fantasize, dream or even start planning a wedding before meeting ‘the one’. Worse still, the romantic movies of heroes falling in love with less than perfect women and sweeping them off their feet in a proposal at the airport, add kerosene to our flame of fantasy. The truth is: idealism is great; but the idealist never knows what to do when the real situation hits hard like a deadly punch from a wrestler’s fist.

Without sounding like a messenger of doom, I will share with you secrets many couples never share about marriage. These are things I have learnt since I got married. I hope you are inspired by it.

The Most Glamorous Part of a Marriage is the Wedding
A gorgeous cake, fresh flowers, wedding gown by Vera Wang, the exotic honeymoon, the paparazzi – all these come into play at the wedding. From the moment the bride wakes up on her wedding day to the moment she spends her first official night as a married woman, she feels on top of the world. Too bad the party can’t last forever.

When you see an elderly couple retaking their marriage vows with tears in their eyes, please note that those are not just tears of happiness; there are tears of a story well told – of joy, pain, courage, sadness and victory against all odds. If you’re not ready to deal with these, it’s not a sin to wait a little. Marriage is hard work and sacrifice.

The Word ‘Sacrifice’ will Suddenly Come up More Often in Your Dictionary
That word we all dread – sacrifice. From the first day, you would find out that you may have to place the needs of others before yours, and if you are blessed with children, get ready for more sacrifices. Will there be times you wish you were single? Yes. Will there be times you wish for one minute to yourself? Definitely. If given the opportunity, would you do it all over again? For most people, YES – especially if you are with the right person.

Marriage is Not for Pretenses or Show-off
Whether you cook with diamonds in your Egusi soup or look like a goddess or even know a thousand styles in bed, a man always knows to whom his heart belongs. The meaning is simple: be yourself before marriage and don’t try to portray what you are not. Let him fall in love with the essence of you not with an image you have created. It’s difficult to fall out of such love except either of you change sometime during the marriage.

You Never Really Know a man/woman Until You get Married
Forget that you two lived in the same house for a few years before marriage, as far as there is no contract binding the two of you together in matrimony, you have not started. People tend to let down their hair when they are married and like an onion, the real us we have kept to ourselves start to unravel. The only thing to do is adjust and move on – you’re in it for real this time.

Marriage is Team Work
Like a job, if you like team work, this role is for you. Just kidding. What I am saying here is that if you don’t work together as a team, you are heading for a major disaster. The unfortunate thing is that you can’t control the other person’s mind and vice versa so one just has to respect the other person’s boundaries, and it’s difficult if both of you are always bent on having your way.

Like a Rollercoaster, There are Ups and Downs
Don’t think that in marriage, every day will be a holiday. You are kidding yourself. In fact, the most ecstatic moments in marriage come after a low period. Like every good story, you will be faced with challenges and tests. Even if you fail one, life will give you an opportunity to repeat the test. But when you pass one, the rewards are priceless.

Marriage is the Ultimate Gamble
Sometimes, marriage leads to happily ever after. Sometimes, it doesn’t. All is fair in love and war. If it doesn’t, dust your feet, learn from past mistakes and start painting a rosy future without giving in to society’s pressures.

Many times, society looks down on divorced women. We are quick to point fingers that it is a woman’s fault that things did not work out. The fact is it could be anybody’s fault. Yes, I know a woman is supposed to be resilient and determined to keep her man, but everyone has their limit of tolerance. We should respect that and not throw stones. If you did not live in their bedroom, try not to judge or place blames. Most times, divorce is the very last option for couples and it is a painful decision to make.

At the end, marriage is about two selfless people living together to achieve each other’s goals. If you find the right person to make that sacrifice with you, you are extremely lucky; as lucky as I am.

Happy Living!
