LONG BEACH (CNS) - Two people are in critical condition today after they were shot at a fruit stand in Long Beach.  

Police responded at 6:15 p.m. Friday to a shots fired call at the corner of Orange Avenue and Market Street, said Long Beach police spokeswoman Arantxa Chavarria.  

The victims, who police say are a father and his juvenile son, were taken to a hospital with gunshot wounds and were in critical but stable condition.  

At least two suspects fled and there was no description.  

`` We don't have a motive in the shooting yet but we think the older male was targeted by the shooters,`` Chavarria told City News Service.  

There were no further details and the shooting is under investigation, Chavarria said.
