On Friday, the suspected gunman, Gregory Walker, was taken into custody in Los Angeles, according to the California Post.
The LAPD confirmed to the Daily Mail that Walker, 35, was detained at around 5:30am local time in Hollywood.

Walker is accused of shooting White hours after the Seattle Seahawks defeated the New England Patriots in this year’s Super Bowl.
White is said to have been in a dispute with rapper Lil Baby just moments before being shot in the ankle.
According to a police report via The San Francisco Standard, the incident occurred at Dahlia’s on Mission Street in San Francisco, where a party was being held downstairs.
Witnesses state that the altercation began when the entourage of the rapper, born Dominique Jones, attempted to enter White’s private event on the lower level.
According to reports, the argument escalated quickly before shots were fired, leaving White with a lower body wound.
The police report details the chaotic scene discovered by officers arriving at the club, noting the presence of adult entertainers and scattered dollar bills on the floor.
‘As I entered, I saw numerous scantily clad females picking up dollar bills that were strewn all over the floor. Some of the females were topless and appeared to have been adult entertainers,’ the report read.
Officers responding to the 4:06am shooting discovered the 49ers pass rusher with a gunshot wound to his left leg after a witness sought help from managers.

Investigators found both 9mm and.45-caliber shell casings at the scene, indicating multiple weapons may have been discharged during the chaotic nightclub fray.
White was reportedly uncooperative with officers when asked to identify the shooter. He was subsequently transported to a local hospital for medical care.
Lil Baby, a Grammy-winning artist whose album ‘WHAM’ topped the Billboard 200, had been at Super Bowl LX before performing a concert and later arriving at the club with his entourage.
White underwent emergency surgery after being transported to hospital but went on to make a full recovery.
The defensive lineman, who was acquired by the Niners in a trade with the Patriots in 2025, has suited up in all four of San Francisco’s games so far this season.
White, who was a second-round pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, has totaled two sacks and six tackles in the 2026 season.
