    The Los Angeles Police Department has released surveillance photos of the suspects wanted for gunning down “General Hospital” actor Johnny Wactor on the streets of the City of Angels — as well as the alleged killers’ getaway vehicle.

    Wactor, 37, was walking back to his car after a late-night shift as a bartender in downtown Los Angeles when he encountered three men who had lifted the vehicle with a floor jack and were trying to steal his catalytic converter.

    When he confronted them, one of the men pulled a handgun and shot Wactor in the chest “without provocation,” cops told KTLA.

    The suspects then fled the scene in a stolen 2018 four-door black Infiniti Q50 with a tan-colored interior, police said.
