LBPD Blotter – Nov. 21, 2022

Welcome to the LBPD Blotter!

As part of our ongoing commitment to external communications and providing valuable information to our community, the Department will begin posting information about recent police activity, ongoing investigations, and other LBPD updates to the Department’s homepage and on the “News” tab of the Department’s website.

At approximately 10:00 a.m. each day, community members will be able to read preliminary information about incidents that may have occurred the previous evening, including shootings, stabbings, traffic fatality, and murder investigations, as well as any other notable incidents. This page will be a resource for the public to learn more about enforcement efforts, arrests, and commendable events and will be updated as new incidents occur.

Here’s a recap of incidents occurring last night:

• Officers investigate a no-hit shooting. On 11/20/2022 at approximately 11:34 p.m., officers responded to the 2500 block Santa Fe Avenue regarding a shots call. Upon arrival, officers located evidence, including casings, indicating a shooting had occurred. Through their investigations, officers determined a male adult suspect patronizing a business entered into a verbal dispute with a male adult victim that escalated when the suspect threatened the victim with a knife, discharged a firearm, and fled the scene prior to officers' arrival. No injuries were reported. The investigation is ongoing
