A 40-year old music executive, wounded in Friday's Hollywood shooting rampage, has died of his injuries.
John Atterberry, 40, was wounded in the jaw and chest as he sat in a Mercedes Benz on Vine Street.
The LAPD confirms Atterberry died at 3:00 p.m. Monday at Cedars Sinai Medical Center.
Atterberry has worked as a music industry executive including a stint as A&R for Tabu Records and as Vice President of Death Row Records, according to a biography posted on Facebook .
Atterberry also helped create the music publishing company Infusion Music Group where he worked on albums for Christina Aguilera, Michael Jackson and the Spice Girls.
"A lot of people are going to miss John. There are a lot of people who John helped," Atterberry's uncle, Johnnie Adams, told KTLA.
In a Facebook post, Atterberry's older sister Cynthia described her loss:
"Today I lost my JOHN, my baby, my guardian angel, my protector, my little brother at 3:00 p.m.
"I do not understand now nor will I ever is why such a senseless act of violence was inflicted upon such a GOD-fearing, kind, compassionate, loving individual," she wrote.
The shooter, 26-year-old Tyler Brehm, was shot and killed by two plainclothes police officers moments after shooting Atterberry.
Few details about Brehm are available, but his Facebook page revealed he ended a relationship four days before the rampage.
On his page, he listed knowledge, friendship, family, money, success and "things that go fast" among his interests.
Brehm's ex-girlfriend, Alicia Alligood, 24, told KTLA she and Brehm dated for four years before breaking up this month.
Brehm and Alligood went to school together in Pennsylvania, beginning in junior high, and continuing in high school. They began "hanging out" during their college years, she said in a phone interview with KTLA's David Begnaud.
Alligood described Brehm as a "humanitarian," and someone who was "extremely motivated to change the world for the better." He even managed a non-profit organization for a friend, she said, but would not name the organization.
She said Brehm was "really stressed out lately."
He met a woman he thought was a pharmaceutical saleswoman, who had given him some kind of pills, Alligood said. He began taking the pills, which was alarming because he never took "hard" drugs before.
"He was very anti-pharmaceutical," Alligood said.
After Brehm met the woman -- who Alligood would not name -- he was never the same.
