[Los Angeles Times] Duke Helfand, Andrew Blankstein and Robert Faturechi - Los Angeles police continued their search for a suspect and a motive in the shooting of two men early Thursday in the underground parking lot of Adat Yeshurun Valley Sephardic synagogue in North Hollywood, as police backed away from initial claims that the attack was motivated by religious hate.

The victims, Maor Ben-Nissan and Allen Lasry, were both wounded in the leg.
