ENCINO – A security guard is in the hospital Monday morning after he was shot outside a home in the Amestoy Estates area of Encino.
The shooting occurred at 2:25 a.m. at 17528 Jayden Lane, according to Officer A. Delatorre at the Los Angeles Police Department’s Operations Center. The home is owned by Amir Esmailian, a music executive and producer, according to media reports.
That is south of the Ventura (101) Freeway and west of Encino Avenue.
The security guard heard gunshots and realized he was wounded, Delatorre said.
Paramedics took the 37-year-old man to a hospital in unknown condition, he said.
The security guard is out of surgery and is expected to survive, according to reports from Fox 11.
The suspects who ran away were described as three males, Delatorre said.
The house is listed for sale for $11,995,000, and according to Zillow it has seven bedrooms, nine bathrooms, gated, hedged and is “equipped with a state of the art security system.”
