   Suspect in downtown L.A. Target shooting apprehended following standoff   
      
   The suspected gunman in a violent shooting at a Target store in downtown   
   Los Angeles was arrested Tuesday, just a few short blocks from where the   
   crime occurred.   
      
   The unidentified suspect, who police referred to as a person of interest,   
   was arrested after an hourslong standoff at an apartment building on the   
   1200 block of Ingraham Street in the Westlake District.   
      
   Police say the suspect barricaded himself inside the apartment as officers   
   attempted to serve a warrant at the residence. Viewer footage from the   
   scene showed several broken windows and KTLA’s Chris Wolfe reported   
   several canisters of tear gas were delivered into the man’s makeshift   
   bunker.   
      
   Images later shared with KTLA showed a person being detained at the scene   
   surrounded by several heavily armed officers, including special   
   enforcement bureau officers wearing gas masks.   
      
   The arrest came hours after the Los Angeles Police Department held a press   
   conference to discuss the ongoing search and released the first images of   
   the gunman, who shot two security guards at the Target store located in   
   the FigAt7th shopping mall.   
      
   According to police, the suspect, a man believed to be in his early 20s,   
   shot the two security guards after they confronted him for shoplifting.   
      
   The suspect entered the store carrying a briefcase and filled it with   
   stolen items before walking past the registers without paying, police   
   officials said during a Tuesday press conference.   
      
   “He was confronted by the security guards outside the Target where a   
   confrontation ensued,” LAPD Capt. Raul Jovel said. “During that scuffle,   
   the suspect produced a pistol and began firing indiscriminately, shooting   
   two people.”   
      
   Police also confirmed that one of the two security guards was armed and   
   exchanged gunfire with the assailant. “This was a gunfight,” Jovel added.   
      
   At least 10 rounds were fired between the two with several walls hit. At   
   the time of their afternoon press conference, LAPD officials said it was   
   unclear if the gunman was hit by return fire.   
      
   Photos shared by LAPD Tuesday morning showed the man who fired and struck   
   the two security guards. He was described as being between 5 feet 8 inches   
   and 6 feet tall and weighing around 160 pounds. At the time of the   
   shooting, he was wearing a black jacket, purple scarf, gray pants and a   
   black do-rag.   
      
   The man’s weapon was described as a 9mm pistol.

   The Los Angeles Police Department released security images of the   
   suspected gunman in a shooting at a DTLA Target on Dec. 30, 2024.   
      
   Prior to his arrest Tuesday evening, he was considered to be armed and   
   dangerous.   
      
   The shooting, which happened around 9 p.m. at a Target store located at   
   735 S. Figueroa St. in the FigAt7th shopping mall in downtown L.A., left   
   the two security guards hospitalized, one of whom was in critical   
   condition.   
      
   During Tuesday’s press conference, LAPD officials provided a positive   
   update, saying that one of the security guards had been released from the   
   hospital.   
      
   The armed security guard was employed by the shopping center, police said,   
   while the other works in loss prevention for Target.   
      
   FigAt7th said in a statement that the mall was “deeply troubled” by the   
   incident that occurred Monday night and was working closely with police in   
   their investigation.   
      
   A statement from Target added that the company was “saddened by this   
   horrible act of violence and our thoughts are with those who were injured,   
   their friends and families.”   
      
   The store where the shooting took place remains closed as of Tuesday   
   night, store officials confirmed.   
      
   Jovel said the LAPD and its law enforcement partners were committed to   
   combating retail theft as they “strive to make downtown a safe location to   
   visit, live and work at.”   
      
   The shooting remains under investigation and anyone with information is   
   urged to contact LAPD Central Robbery Detective Alvarez at 213-833-3750.
