In what officials called an “unprovoked attack,” a California agent fatally shot a man who had wounded him with a razor outside a capital police headquarters. Around 5:30 p.m. on Saturday, a gentleman in his 30s approached the female official outside the Santa Monica Police Department’s top windows. According to the office, the man was instructed to wait while the officer was speaking with the citizen.
” Without notice, the person attacked the official while pulling a weapon from his clothes. The suspect allegedly stabbed and slashed the commander, according to a statement released via social media.
As the gentleman continued the assault, the officer self-armed and fled around the corner of the building. The guy was subsequently shot by the officer, according to the department.
The Santa Monica Fire Department and police gave emergency health assistance, but the person was later declared dead, according to the office.
The police officer’s identity and health problem were not immediately known. The official was taken to a hospital with serious injuries, according to KNBC-TV, but authorities said he was expected to live.
The Los Angeles County Coroner’s Office was called to the scene. The Santa Monica Police Department and the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office did investigate, the office said. ( AP ) GRS GRS
