Probe continues following officer-involved shooting in Arcadia that left suspect injured

An investigation continues in Arcadia following an officer-involved shooting that left a female armed suspect injured. 

The incident initially was reported as a person armed with a knife just after 9 p.m. Saturday in the 50 block of California Street. 

When officers arrived, they located the mother of the suspect, who had reported the suspect, a 21-year-old Hispanic woman. 

Soon after, the suspect advanced toward an officer, and at one point, removed a kitchen knife from her pocket, police said. 

Officers issued commands to stop; however, police say the suspect kept advancing at an officer, and raised the knife above her shoulders, "holding it in a stabbing position," according to a news release. 

That was when an officer-involved shooting occurred. 

Police said the suspect was struck once in the upper torso and was taken to a hospital where she was listed in stable condition. 

Anyone with information about this incident was asked to contact the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department's Homicide Bureau at (323) 890-5500.
