What started as a domestic disturbance call from a distraught mother ended tragically soon after she reported that her boyfriend had driven off with their three-year old daughter following an argument early Monday afternoon.
Her boyfriend, who had reportedly been drinking, led Montebello police through Montebello and East Los Angeles, ending back at his apartment on the 1300 block of Greenwood Ave.
The man stopped outside the apartment and exited his vehicle, holding a handgun, according to authorities. During the confrontation that followed, officers shot and killed the man.
The man was pronounced dead on the scene, according to the Sheriff’s department, which had taken over the investigation.
The chase began at 1 p.m. and ended back at the apartment building at 1:55 p.m.
The child was unharmed and no officers were injured, authorities said.
Sheriff’s detectives were still investigating the incident Monday evening.
