Officials with LAPD have announced a $100,000 reward for information that leads them to the gunman who ambushed two sheriff’s deputies in Compton over the weekend.
The six-figure reward was announced late Sunday by the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department for any information that leads to the arrest and conviction of a person seen on dramatic video walking up to a stopped police car, opening fire and running away, critically injuring the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s deputies inside.
Investigators said the two officers were sitting in their patrol car at the MLK Transit Center in Compton shortly before 7 p.m. Saturday when the shooter ambushed them – approaching the LASD vehicle from behind and firing several bullets inside.
Multiple agencies are still looking for the attacker, described as a Black man who appears to be between 28 to 30 years old and who was wearing dark clothing at the time of the shooting.
Both of the sheriff’s deputies’ injuries were listed as critical immediately after the shooting, and each underwent surgery, police said. Their conditions have since been updated to stable, according to multiple reports.
