LAPD officers fired on in 'unprovoked attack'



A Los Angeles Police Department patrol car was fired on in an “unprovoked attack” Sunday night that put police officers around the city on tactical alert.

The shooting took place late Sunday in a neighborhood in South Los Angeles as two officers were responding to an unrelated radio call.

“A couple of officers were rolling down the street when they observed the muzzle of a rifle firing in their direction,” LAPD Sgt. James Shray told MyFox LA. “They responded to the muzzle flash.”

LAPD spokeswoman Officer Nuria Venegas told The Associated Press Monday that one man was under arrest and a second suspect was being sought.

One of the officers returned fire at two suspects. The officers nabbed one of the suspects and recovered the rifle.   More   Strange News
