A woman who was allegedly armed with a replica handgun was hospitalized after being hit by a “foam projectile” that was fired by Los Angeles police Monday.
"When the officers arrived to the area of the call, they saw the suspect in the 400 bock of Adams Boulevard, armed with what they believed to be a semiautomatic handgun,'' police said."Officers attempted to stop the suspect, described as a female 50 years old."
"The suspect pointed what the officers believed to be a handgun at bystanders, and an officer-involved shooting occurred,'' police said."A 40mm, less lethal foam projectile was also deployed. "The suspect, who was struck by the 40mm projectile but not struck by gunfire, continued west on Adams Boulevard and was taken into custody near the intersection of Adams and Maple Avenue,'' police said."The suspect was transported to a local hospital for evaluation and is in stable condition.''"The object the suspect had in her possession was identified as a replica semiautomatic handgun,'' police said.
