LOS ANGELES – An armed man suspected of kidnapping led police on a pursuit Friday before engaging in an hour long standoff – and the whole incident was caught on news cameras.
The suspect, who was driving a stolen SUV, began fleeing after police attempted to pull him over on a kidnapping charge from the previous week, according to the NY Daily News.
Around 5:30 PM the suspect exited his vehicle and waved a firearm, exchanging fire with officers for over an hour.
The standoff ended when the fugitive was shot in the torso. His condition is unknown.
No officers were wounded in the gunfight, according to the report.
