It happened Wednesday evening near North Mission Road and North Broadway.
LAPD Cmdr. Stacy Spell said she could not clarify whether the suspect died from police gunfire or from a self-inflicted gunshot wound, or what type of firearm the suspect was carrying. The identity of the suspect, a male, was not immediately made public.
“While conducting their search for the parolee, they had him in a location inside a shed, they gave him commands to exit and he didn’t comply with those commands,” Spell said. “At that point, it was determined the officers would deploy a chemical agent in an effort to try to get the suspect to come out peacefully.”
In a Tweet, LAPD’s Central Division said: “This is every law enforcement’s nightmare. We ask for your thoughts and prayers for our injured officers.” Laura Flores, 53, and her husband Lorenzo heard the commotion begin from their apartment building and went outside to see what was happening.“We heard all these helicopters outside and they were shouting orders to stay inside but we wanted to see what was happening,” Laura Flores said. “Then it was like all these explosions and we could see smoke.”
