The suspect is seen pulling a gun from his waist and brazenly shooting at officers before he is struck by police fire, the video shows.
The suspect, later identified as 24-year-old Oscar Santiago, was the only person injured during the incident.
Santiago was allegedly armed with a loaded 9mm semi-automatic handgun, which was recovered at the scene by police. An investigation is underway to determine if the officers' use of force was warranted, LAPD said. The department said its specialized Force Investigation Division had responded to the scene and interviewed witnesses and supervised evidence collected.
