LOS ANGELES — An armed suspect was taken into custody early Friday morning after being shot by an officer and subsequently barricading himself following a pursuit near the Nickerson Gardens housing project in South Los Angeles.
Officers from the Los Angeles Police Department on patrol came into contact with the suspect, who was riding a bicycle, at 10:24 p.m. Thursday in the vicinity of Imperial Highway and Success Avenue, and after determining that he was wanted for an assault with a deadly weapon pursued him after he failed to stop, LAPD Officer Hernandez told City News Service.
