This occurred on the 13200 block of Blodgett Avenue. Half a dozen deputies piled out of an unmarked truck and advanced toward the residence with weapons -- hand guns and shotguns -- at the ready. Several dozen shots were fired.
The street was blocked off. Residents were not permitted to drive to their own house, but were forced to park a distance away and walk in. Later in the evening, half a dozen other unmarked cars were admitted to the area, bringing a dozen men in suits. A KNBC4 newsvan was turned away.
After 9 pm, seven SUVs drove up, and men with Crime Lab vests went to the scene. Some of these investigators had been called from as far away as East Los Angeles. Work proceeded into the early morning. The house under investigation was illuminated from outside by the high intensity lights of a rescue vehicle.
Residents were not informed of anything that happened, but were merely told to stay out of police business.

I would be relieved knowing that a murder suspect was under surveillance and is taken out of public after shooting at law enforcement, even if it meant temporary inconvenience for the night. It's much better than having a murder suspect next door, ready to kill again.

Thank you Downey Police Dept. and LA County Sheriff Dept.

To bad the cholo was not killed by the Police, they should have fired a few more shots. Now taxpayer have to waste money for medical care, a trial, and prison for this low life loser.

So what if he was a father of three, what's that supposed to mean? Plenty of these psycho killers have kids. So I'm to give this creep respect because he's fathered a few future gangbangers. Listen, "close friend" any culo agujero with a sex organ can be a father, but it takes someone special to be a dad. And this dude didn't sound like no dad to me.

Looks like that bad KARMA you wish on "all you ignorant people" who "don't know the facts" came back and got your "real good friend" first though, didn't it? And your stating we posters hide behind a computer? What a joke! Look who changed their screen name..what..2? 3? times to post comments. The "father of 3" you stupidly defend is the ONE who's dirty, not the Deputies who shot him. If he's so "innocent" (transalation: coward), why did the GANG UNIT go looking for him? Save your breath. He more than likely killed another gang member, so looks like karma comes back to get the losers first. Relieved no Deputies or innocent citizens got harmed, which is how these types of warrents should end-with the criminal getting his payback.
