Man Injured in Norwalk Shooting at Torch Club parking lot

Friday, Dec. 18, 2009

NORWALK, CA -

A man was shot in the forearm early Friday morning in the parking lot of the Torch Room Lounge and Bar at 10632 Imperial Highway.

The Torch Room as been a local "institution" for many here in Norwalk for decades.
Local Sheriff officials said that they did not know what led to the shooting, or how many suspects were involved in the incident.

The victim was taken to a local hospital and his injuries are being classified as "minor."

This has been a bloody week in Norwalk.

A 21-year old Norwalk man was shot and killed Monday night and two others adults were wounded in what Los Angeles County Sheriff Department officials are calling a possible "gang related" murder that occured at the 14500 Block of Piuma Avenue. The names of those victims have still not been released by officials, and the suspect is still at large.

If you have any information about either of these crimes, please call the Norwalk Sheriff's Department at (562) 863-8711.

Meet Randy Economy

You may know me from my role as the Senior Advisor and Official Media Spokesman for the Recall Gavin Newsom campaign that established a worldwide blitz of interviews. I conducted more than 2,200 media interviews on behalf of “The People’s Recall” during a 10-month period from November 2020 to September 2021. The iconic magazine Mother Jones in a dramatic feature article called me “A ‘Superhero Pirate’ Radio Host, (and) Gavin Newsom’s Strangest—and Most Dangerous—Threat. Meet Randy Economy, the man behind the effort to recall California’s governor.” I appeared on more than 330 media outlets around the world in my capacity with RecallGavin2020. Fox News, CNN, MSNBC, Newsmax, NBC Nightly News, ABC News, as well as the Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, Politico, and dozens of other media outlets aired featured reports on my work on behalf of “The People’s Recall.” I am and will always consider myself to be a journalist. Sometimes I think I bleed ink. My talents as an Investigative Journalists in California earned me FIVE top awards from the prestigious Los Angeles Press Club in 2013, 2014, and 2016. I am tenacious. My reporting over the years has led to the prosecution of several elected officials in California. While working for a tiny community newspaper in Southeast Los Angeles County, I worked doggedly to expose the biggest public corruption case in Los Angeles County history when I unearthed a massive pay to play scheme inside the Assessor’s Office that led to the arrest of then Assessor John R. Noguez and four others. However, politics has been in my DNA since I was a child. I have worked on more than 300 political campaigns as a consultant and advisor since 1982 for candidates from all sides of the political spectrum including Democrats and Republicans, and even Libertarians. I am also a small business owner, serving as the President and CEO of Hot Water Studio & Production, LLC. My company works with media outlets across the state, nation, and world exposing public corruption via several new media platforms. I have also overcome personal challenges. I am legally blind with zero vision in my right eye and only 40 percent vision remaining in my left eye. I sometimes wear an eyepatch due to my failed vision. (Hence the nickname of “America’s Political Pirate.”
