Man shot in confrontation with CHP; investigation closes 405 Freeway in Hawthorne
One man was shot after a confrontation with California Freeway Patrol officers alongside an onramp to the 405 Freeway in Hawthorne, shutting down all northbound site visitors Thursday night.
Officers within the space responded to a name at 7:14 p.m. of a attainable small fireplace alongside the embankment of the Rosecrans Avenue onramp. After they arrived, they “someway got here into contact with a pedestrian,” and it appeared {that a} tent was on fireplace, CHP Officer Stephan Brandt informed The Occasions.
Sooner or later, pictures had been fired. Based on a report by KCAL-TV, officers alleged that the suspect had been throwing bricks of their route earlier than pictures had been fired.
The suspect was injured, and his situation was not instantly recognized.
Officers are on scene investigating, Brandt mentioned, and all northbound lanes of the 405 at Rosecrans Avenue are closed for an unknown length.
