Off-duty LAPD officer fatally shot while house-hunting with girlfriend

[Otis Mayfield]

The shooting unfolded Monday evening in the 1700 block of East 87th Street in unincorporated Los Angeles, the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, which is leading the investigation, said.

Los Angeles Police Department Chief Michel Moore told members of the Board of Police Commissioners Tuesday that Arroyos was killed during a gunfight with 3 men who tried to rob him.

The police officer had been looking at a home to buy with his girlfriend when the couple was approached by the alleged robbers, two of whom opened fire, detectives told NBC Los Angeles.

Arroyos told his girlfriend to run and exchanged gunfire with the suspects, but was struck, they said.

Moore told board members the officer had a "bright future" that was "taken away" in a street robbery.

Like a lot of these stories, there's not a lot of details.

Is it better to give crooks your money or to try to shoot it out with them?

If you're using a gun for self-defense?

Even the worst shot can occasionally hit someone right between the eyes.

RIP

LA (and all of California) is a lawless shithole because of people like you.

So, citizens should be disarmed and let the police protect them.

But police should just submit to the criminals....

At times, I don't think you fascists have our best interests in mind.....

The off-duty cop wasn't unarmed. He took a risk, and it didn't pan out.

You could almost say that if he didn't have a gun, he'd be alive today, maybe $50 pooer.

Always rooting for the criminals.

Back in the old days, LAPD had a motto; "To serve and protect."

You have a new motto - "To cower and submit"

Unfortunate, but Firestone Park is kind of a crummy neighborhood. I wonder why he'd want to live there.

The just comply with criminals BS that was started back in the 70's is what led to massive spikes in crime. There is no evidence that these perps would have let them them go, they might have killed both the cop and his girlfriend. She got away because he protected her.

Likely the only hood he could afford.

While the crooks may have murdered him even if he did willingly give over his money.

They usually don't.

He was a cop. They make good money.

He looked young. Starting pay is likely 60-70K. IDK how people can afford a 500K home on that salary to begin with.

$83K for LAPD. Add in overtime and it's well over $100K

It's very doable.

Not bad at all.

Sadly, that's barely middle class in LA.

Why didn't CA's draconian "common sense gun control laws" prevent this from happening?

Another interesting detail might be the immigration status of the robbers and prior criminal record

This tidbit from the article tells me everything I need to know about the perps:

Five adults — three males and two females — have been detained the investigation, but none have been charged with the murder, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Office. Their names were not released.

Cos you guys need more guns so this incident wouldn't have happened
