Update: All Burglary Suspects Captured in Studio City
The SWAT team was deployed when burglars entered a home where a housekeeper was working.

Update:
Three burglary suspects who targeted two different residences in Studio City were in custody today following a manhunt that lasted more than four hours.
Officers were sent to the 13000 block of Bloomfield Street about 10:40 a.m. As they approached the home, police saw three suspects -- all in their late 20s to early 30s -- running north and scaling a fence, said LAPD Officer Mike Lopez.

A perimeter was set up and one suspect was located in an apartment in the 13000 block of Moorpark Street, which he entered through a balcony, Lopez said.
A woman inside the apartment hid herself in a closet and called 911. The suspect was in possession of property from both burglary locations when arrested, Lopez said.

A SWAT team, with the help of police dogs, eventually located the two other suspects --one of whom was trying to hide in bushes. The other was taken into custody only after gas was injected into a storage shed, Lopez said.
The suspects’ names were not immediately released.
