Los Angeles County Sheriff's Homicide Bureau detectives are continuing their investigation into the circumstances surrounding a Deputy Involved Shooting, which occurred Sunday night, May 13, 2012, at the intersection of Oleander Avenue and Glencoe Street, Compton.
Detectives have learned that Compton Station deputies were conducting a traffic stop at 9:03pm, when the driver of the suspect vehicle suddenly stopped. The driver of the suspect vehicle produced a firearm and pointed it at deputies, resulting in a deputy involved shooting.
The suspect was hit, and transported to a local hospital where he is in stable condition.
No deputies were injured.
An additional suspect was arrested at the scene.
Both suspects were male Hispanic adults.
The suspect's firearm was recovered at the scene.
Whenever a Deputy-Involved Shooting occurs involving Los Angeles County Sheriff's Deputies, and it results in the wounding of a suspect, multiple independent investigations immediately begin at the scene. These include separate investigations by the Office of the Los Angeles District Attorney and the Los Angeles County Coroner, in addition to investigations by Sheriff's Homicide Bureau and Internal Affairs Bureau. Attorneys with the Los Angeles Office of Independent Review also respond to the scene, and have full access to the facts known to the Sheriff's Department throughout every phase of these investigations. Once concluded, every aspect of the shooting is reviewed by the Sheriff's Executive Force Review Committee.
