A gunman opened fire on Hollywood’s Walk of Fame as a group of Vicente Fernandez fans gathered to mourn his death Sunday night.

The crowd heard the shots then spotted the spotted the alleged shooter, who had his arm extended out an apartment window while holding a handgun, the Daily Mail noted.

No one was injured by the gunfire.

LAPD stormed the apartment building from which the shots were fired and a suspect was arrested, the Daily News noted.

The section of Hollywood Blvd. where the shots were fired was temporarily shut down, but the crowd remained and gathered on the sidewalk again once it reopened.

California has universal background checks, an “assault weapons” ban, gun registration requirements, a red flag law, a 10-day waiting period for gun purchases, a limit on the number of a guns a law-abiding citizen can buy during a given month, a “high capacity” magazine ban, a ban on campus carry, a ban on K-12 teachers carrying guns for classroom defense, a ban on open carry, and numerous other gun controls.

The state also requires would-be purchasers of ammunition to pass a background check before acquiring bullets.
