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
