Los Angeles police officers fatally shot a man Saturday after he allegedly shot another individual to death in a residential area of Reseda just north of Reseda High School, authorities said.

Multiple officers were involved in the shooting, which occurred at about 4:40 p.m., shortly after they responded to a report of shots fired in the 6600 block of Etiwanda Avenue, according to law enforcement authorities familiar with the investigation.

“After they discovered the victim, who was dead at the scene, they set up a perimeter,” said Police Department spokesman Cleon Joseph. “They saw the suspect. There was an officer-involved shooting. The suspect was pronounced dead at the scene.”
