The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department rushed to the scene following reports of an active shooter.



The man was believed to have been shooting from a home in Huntington Park. It is unclear if it was his house.

It is unclear if anyone was injured from the shooting and the shooter may have discarded the gun.

Authorities were said to be proceeding with caution and assuming that the man was still armed.
