MONTEREY PARK, Calif. (KTLA) — A suspect armed with a handgun was shot and killed by police in Monterey Park on Friday morning.
It happened around 12:02 a.m. in the 400 block of Atlantic Boulevard.
Police had responded to a disturbance call between a boyfriend and girlfriend at a motel on Atlantic.
When the officers arrived at the location, they were directed to a vehicle that was leaving.
Two police units stopped the car on Atlantic Boulevard and Harding Avenue.
That’s when a male passenger exited the vehicle and brandished a handgun, according to police, prompting the shooting.
The male suspect was pronounced dead at the scene, and a handgun was recovered.
The L.A. County Sheriff’s Department is assisting Monterey Park police with the investigation.

Who cares what nationality he was, hes a dead fool that's what he is, getting out of a car in Los Angeles with a gun when the police stops you is stupid.

KTLA misspelled the city name. It should be "Montuway Pauk!"

Whatever his race was is unimportant, good riddance to another punk with a gun.

How dare you call dorner a madman, and then report on the police opening fire on one man…we all know, he probably didn’t have a gun…and these clowns, that are playing on these post, needed to be that dude, the police just murdered.
