Three people were injured in a shooting Tuesday in Long Beach that prompted a police pursuit to downtown Los Angeles and an officer-involved shooting.<\/p>\n
Officers responded to a targeted shooting around 12:24 a.m. in the 200 block of Aquarium Way, the Long Beach Police Department said in a statement.<\/p>\n
Two people were transported to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries and another victim was treated at the scene, police said.<\/p>\n
The suspect fled in their vehicle after being identified by officers near the area of Burnett Street and Pacific Avenue, according to the LBPD.<\/p>\n
The suspect then fired shots at Long Beach police officers and an officer-involved shooting occurred while the driver was being pursued on the northbound Long Beach (710) freeway, police said.<\/p>\n
The suspect then collided into a pole in downtown Los Angeles, was taken into custody and transported to a hospital for injuries related to the collision, the LBPD said.<\/p>\n
No officers nor the suspect were struck by gunfire, and the firearm was recovered from the scene, authorities said.<\/p>\n
All lanes of the northbound 710 were closed at Willow Street at the LBPD\u2019s request and remained so as the morning commute got under way.<\/p>\n
The connectors from the San Diego (405) and Gardena (91) freeways were also closed and a SigAlert was issued.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Three people were injured in a shooting Tuesday in Long Beach that prompted a police pursuit to downtown…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":450218,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[174,11834,131,133,132,2592,135,11837],"class_list":["post-450217","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-long-beach","tag-beach","tag-injured","tag-long-beach","tag-long-beach-headlines","tag-long-beach-news","tag-pursuit","tag-shooting","tag-three"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/450217","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=450217"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/450217\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/450218"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=450217"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=450217"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=450217"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
