Share

Los Angeles police officers who stormed a Granada Hills apartment where a gunman was believed to be hiding found a 61-year-old man dead of an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound, authorities said Friday.

A special weapons and tactics team entered the apartment in the 16800 block of Chatsworth Street about 11:15 p.m. Thursday, about three hours after neighbors reported hearing up to six shots from the unit, Detective Michael Brandt said.

Brandt said the officers found Jerry Jordan, who lived in the apartment alone, dead of a gunshot wound.
