Officers responded to the apartments at 10555 W. Jewell Ave. on reports of shots fired at about 3 a.m. That's near South Kipling Parkway and West Jewell Avenue. LPD said they found the man lying in the parking lot.
The victim was taken to a nearby hospital, where he died from his injuries, according to LPD.
The gunman, who is also 27 years old, was identified, but LPD said he has not been arrested or charged and that the case is still active.
