While the Los Angeles Police Department could not disclose the identities of those involved in the incident, a spokesperson could confirm to Access that a white male was shot after an attempted robbery by two black male suspects shortly after 2 AM, at 6002 W. Sunset Blvd. - the location of the party's valet parking, just a half-block east of the event. The victim was transported to an area hospital, while the suspects fled the scene.
No other crimes were reported in the immediate area, authorities confirmed.
Somerville had been attending the party alongside a host of other celebrities including Christina Milian, Mischa Barton, Brittany Snow, Brea Grant and "90210's" Ryan Eggold and Adam Gregory.

Abby TChloe, your right, there are MUCH worse things going on in this world than racism... Don't get me wrong racism is horrible, but to hate this country or another race b/c they said something mean about your ethnic group is so ridiculous!! I saw a child today that someone threw against the wall. Be passionate about something (or someone) else besides your petty issues. Be grateful for your lireport abuseposted October 20, 2008 8:10 AM PDT
