the article reads of one victim but later on it says that when paramedics arrived at USC “they later died”
Tom Arnold

They say “They” instead of he or she, because the police hasn’t released information about the deceased.

It should say “he”, which can also be used a gender neutral pronoun. “They” implies that there were multiple victims.

Also, I’m pretty sure the victim was taken to UCI Medical Center not UCLA.
