LAPD responds to man on Pacoima rooftop, acting erratically, throwing objects

Los Angeles Police officers are responding to a man on a Pacoima residential roof, acting erratically as he paces back and forth, grabbing 2x4s sitting on the rooftop, and even throwing a piece of wood toward officers standing in line with guns drawn. 

Police were called around 4:20 p.m. to the 13300 block of West Judd Street to a report of a backyard rubbish fire. Police said the man set his backyard on fire and that officers put it out with a fire extinguisher. The man is believed to be intoxicated. 

The man began crawling off the roof around 6:27 p.m. but paused and sat next to some solar panels. 

Officers eventually convinced the man to get off the roof and surrender to officers.
