LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Authorities found an assault weapon in a car belonging to the man who opened fire with a handgun inside a Los Angeles police station, hitting one officer several times.
Chief Charlie Beck said Tuesday that it's unclear why the suspect brought only a Glock pistol, not the assault weapon, into the lobby of the West Traffic Division station. Beck did not elaborate about the weapon found in the car.
After briefly speaking to officers Monday night, the man began shooting at them. One officer was able to return fire and wound the suspect.
The officer is hospitalized in good condition with a bullet wound to the shoulder.
Beck said the officer believes his life was saved when one of the rounds struck his holstered backup pistol.
The suspect is in critical condition.
