Welcome to the LBPD Blotter!

As part of our ongoing commitment to external communications and providing valuable information to our community, the Department posts preliminary information about incidents that occurred the previous evening, including shootings and stabbings, as well as any other LBPD updates to the Department's homepage and on the "News" tab of the Department's website. This page will be updated as new incidents occur.

Here's a recap of incidents occurring last night:

  • No-Hit Shooting - Wardlow Road and San Gabriel Riverbed - On July 25, 2024, at approximately 9:31 p.m., officers were dispatched to the area of Wardlow Road and San Gabriel Riverbed regarding an assault with a deadly weapon. Upon arrival officers contacted an uninjured male adult victim. The preliminary investigation suggests the victim and a female adult suspect were engaged in a verbal altercation, which escalated when the suspect revealed a firearm and shot at the victim, missing him. The suspect fled prior to officers' arrival. The investigation is ongoing.

This information is preliminary and is intended for early information use rather than being a formal investigative report.
