Man shot and arrested by police in Pomona – NBC Los Angeles

On Sunday, police shot and arrested a man after a standoff at an intersection in Pomona.

According to a statement from the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, which is investigating the shooting, Pomona police officers responded to the 200 block of Las Brisas Circle around 7:35 p.m. Sunday because “shots were fired during a domestic dispute.”

“The suspect exited the property at a high rate of speed and caused a traffic accident at the intersection of Holt Avenue and White Avenue,” the sheriff’s statement said.

When the suspect failed to exit the vehicle, officers initiated a tactical vehicle barricade, which led to an officer-involved shootout, sheriff’s officials said.

“Initial reports indicate the suspect pointed a firearm at officers,” Pomona police said in a statement to X, noting that no officers were injured.

“The suspect was struck by gunfire,” the sheriff’s statement said. “He was treated at the scene and transported to a local hospital where he is currently in stable condition. A firearm was recovered at the scene.”

The suspect’s name was not immediately released.
