The 17-year-old was hospitalized in unknown condition after the shooting, which happened at around 5:40 a.m.
Police shot and wounded a teenager in Alhambra early Thursday, prompting a nearby elementary school to close for the day as their investigation continued. The shooting happened just before 5:40 a.m., when Alhambra Police Department officers were called to the area near S. Meridian Avenue and W. Commonwealth Avenue, according to a statement from Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, who were assisting with the investigation.
As they approached the suspect, he allegedly produced a firearm, which prompted officers to open fire. LASD says that the unidentified 17-year-old male was taken to a nearby hospital after being shot in the lower body. His injuries are considered to be non-life-threatening. Police say that they recovered the gun at the scene. Emery Park Elementary School, which is located on Commonwealth Ave., was closed for the day as a result of the ongoing investigation.
