L.A. County sheriff investigating fatal shooting by Pomona police


Pomona police shot and killed a man Sunday morning after confronting him and a woman in an alley, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, which is investigating.

The shooting occurred in the 900 block of West Holt Avenue about 8:40 a.m., when two Pomona officers encountered the pair and “the male became uncooperative and violent,” a sheriff’s press release said. The man was pronounced dead at the scene. His name and age have not been released.

No other information was available Sunday.
