Source Los Angeles TimesAn LAPD traffic stop Wednesday night nearly became deadly when an assailant pulled out a weapon without warning and began firing at two officers, police said. A photo of the damaged cruiser released by the Los Angeles Police Department shows several bullet holes in the windshield, with both the passenger and driver positions hit. As the vehicle came to a stop, police said, someone in the car "immediately shot at the officers," who returned fire. Officers pursued it to the area of Broadway and 135th Street, where they lost sight of the vehicle traveling north on Broadway. ________©2024 Los Angeles Times.
