A Pomona police officer shot and injured a man he was chasing on foot Friday night after the man aimed a gun at the officer, authorities said Saturday.
Pomona Police Department officers assigned to a joint gang suppression team, along with Los Angeles County district attorney investigators, were patrolling in the 300 block of East Center Street when they saw the man in a “heated argument” with another person, according to the Los Angeles County Sherriff’s Department’s homicide bureau, which is investigating the shooting.
After the argument, the man rode away on a bicycle, and Pomona police tried to stop him.
