LOS ANGELES, CA — One man was in custody Friday after police say they caught him attempting to break into a house in Highland Park.
The suspect was taken into custody and hospitalized around 10:18 p.m. Thursday after attempting to break into a house on the 4900 block of Buchanan Street, a Los Angeles Police Department spokesperson said.
The person was suspected to be under the influence of narcotics, the LAPD said. A neighbor contacted law enforcement authorities after seeing him continuously bang a wall.
Video from the scene shows the suspect in his underwear attempting to resist arrest before he is strapped to a stretcher and loaded into an ambulance.
