Deputies fatally shoot man at Palmdale gas station
Los Angeles County sheriff’s deputies shot and killed a man suspected of assault at a Palmdale gas station Friday morning, officials said.
Deputies responded to the 13000 block of Pearblossom Highway at 6:48 a.m. after receiving reports that a man armed with a knife was making threats and assaulting someone.
When deputies arrived, they encountered a man in his 30s who matched the description of the suspect.
“During the deputies’ contact with the suspect, the suspect advanced toward the deputies while armed with a sharp object and a deputy-involved shooting occurred,” officials said in a statement.
The man, who was not identified, was taken to a nearby hospital where he was pronounced dead.
Officials said a “sharp object” was recovered at the scene.
Homicide detectives are investigating the shooting, Sheriff’s Department officials said.
