Active scene after officer-involved shooting in Long Beach - CBS News

A shooting involving a police officer has occurred in Long Beach, the Long Beach Police Department reports. 

LBPD officers shot a male suspect who they believed had a firearm in his hand after arriving to a residence on the 1100 block of East 17th Street, near Martin Luther King Jr Avenue.

When officers arrived, they found the man on top of a roof holding what they believed was a firearm. 

The suspect was not complying with LBPD's demands and allegedly continued to point his firearm at the officers and that's when they opened fire.

The Long Beach Fire Department pronounced the man dead at the scene. 

Homicide detectives are still at the scene investigating and are asking the public to "avoid the area."
