The second shooting took place early Sunday in Compton City, when four or five men turned up at a party and opened fire, Los Angeles County Sheriff's Deputy Tony Moore said.
Eight people were shot and three were critically wounded.
Moore said it was not known if the attack was gang-related.
No suspect was arrested in both shootings, police said.
