An officer with the Los Angeles Police Department suffered non-life-threatening injuries when a man wielding a machete allegedly charged at officers after crashing a carjacked vehicle into two police cruisers, according to officers.
According to Fox News, the LAPD says officers at the scene opened fire, gravely wounding the assailant, who had reportedly just robbed an Autozone store and carjacked a vehicle at a fast-food restaurant, then fled in the stolen vehicle.
