Hollywood Shootout Victim Remains in Critical Condition

John Atterberry, a music industry executive, was shot in the face during Friday's shootout.

A music industry executive remained in critical condition Sunday, shot in his jaw by a gunman who fired at people and vehicles while marching down Vine Street in broad daylight two days ago.

John Atterberry "is still in critical condition," said Simi Singer, a spokesperson for Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. "I don't expect there to be a change."

Atterberry, 40, a music industry executive, was shot in his face and upper torso Friday morning as he sat in his car. The shooter, Tyler Brehm, was shot dead moments later by two plainclothes police officers.
