Watch: Man appears to be arrested in background of live news report


Video: Man Seems to Be Taken Into Custody During Live News Broadcast

(KTLA) As affiliate KTLA’s Carlos Herrera reported Saturday morning on the previous night’s shooting at an Inglewood college campus, police officers took a person into custody in the background.

“This is just unfolding right now,” Herrera said at 8:04 a.m. as officers filed out of squad cars behind him.

The officers appeared to be holding rifles, although it’s unclear if they were non-lethal.

KTLA reached out to the Los Angeles Police Department about the incident. The department said officers were following an allegedly stolen vehicle in the area of Aviation and Century Boulevards.

The suspect, who remains unidentified, was taken into custody “without incident.”

Herrera spotted the suspect, who appeared to be male, exiting the vehicle with his hands raised in the air. He then laid on the asphalt while officers cuffed him.

It’s not yet clear if he was armed. No additional details were immediately made available.

The arrest was not related to Friday’s shooting, which left two people hospitalized.
