A woman was killed when a suspected gunman barricaded himself inside of a crowded Trader Joe’s grocery store in Los Angeles’ Silver Lake neighborhood on Saturday. An estimated 40 to 50 people were inside the store at the start of the standoff, police said.

The Hostage Situation took place after a police pursuit, which ended in an officer-involved shooting. Los Angeles Police said the woman killed was struck by gunfire inside the store. 

After several hours, the suspect walked out of the store and was taken into custody “without incident,” police said.

Before the barricade situation, LAPD officers were pursuing the gunman, who is suspected of shooting his grandmother and a second woman in her 20s around 1 p.m., LAPD Officer Mike Lopez told HuffPost. Lopez said the women’s conditions were unknown.

The suspect fled the scene of the first shooting and was later spotted by police in Hollywood. Lopez said the suspect “fired multiple rounds at the officers” during the pursuit, which ended when the suspect crashed a vehicle in front of the Trader Joe’s.

Footage from news helicopters showed police officers helping people from the store during the standoff. Officers removed two kids from a car in the parking lot and carried them to safety. Another video shows people climbing out of a store window and down a ladder.

The suspect is a black male, according to Lopez.

President Donald Trump tweeted that Federal Law Enforcement was assisting LAPD with the incident and said he was watching the “possible hostage situation very closely.”
