Officers engaged in standoff with suspect on roof in South Los Angeles
Authorities were engaged in a standoff with a man in South Los Angeles Wednesday morning.
The man, the subject of a warrant of some sort, fled from officers onto the roofs of several residences in the 81st Street and McKinley Avenue area.
As a result, Los Angeles Police Department officers established a perimeter around the homes as they monitored the situation.
At around 8:59 a.m., after some time jumping between roofs and acting in an agitated manner, the man climbed into some trees near an electrical pole.
