FBI Homicide Suspect Shot At Anaheim Nursery: Police

ANAHEIM, CA — A homicide suspect was shot Tuesday in Anaheim by a law enforcement officer assigned to an FBI task force investigating the Las Vegas murder, police said.

The shooting happened just before 10 a.m. in the G.G. Nursery and Flower Shop nursery yard at the 2700 block of West Broadway, according to Anaheim police Sgt. Daron Wyatt.

No officers were hurt in the shooting, according to Anaheim Police.

An FBI task force was pursuing a homicide suspect from Las Vegas in Anaheim when an officer assigned to the task force got into a confrontation with the man, which led to an officer-involved shooting, Wyatt said.

The 24-year-old suspect was taken to UC Irvine Medical Center in Orange in critical condition, Wyatt said.

The officer was not an FBI agent, but works for the Los Angeles Police Department, and the FBI task force was assisting Las Vegas police in looking for the fugitive, said the FBI's information officer, Laura Eimiller.

Anaheim police and the LAPD will investigate the shooting, Eimiller said.
