Jonathan Magana has been recognized as the suspect in the shooting of three Los Angeles Police Division officials on North Broadway, Mission Street Wednesday night. He was shot dead following a showdown at Lincoln Levels, authorities said.
The Hollenbeck station officials were called to the 3800 block of Broadway at around 3:50 PM on Wednesday to look for a parolee at large, LAPD Right hand Boss Al Labrada said. They found the suspect who would not follow orders. A K-9 unit was mentioned from the Metropolitan Division.
“LAPD officers used tear gas, but the man, who was identified Thursday as Jonathan Magana, 32, still refused to comply and at some point opened fire on the officers, LaBrada said. Police returned fire and Magana died during the confrontation.”

They were taken to the medical clinic by ambulances and each of the three and expected to make due.
