The victim was later identified as Luis Herrera of Los Angeles. The California Attorney General's office is investigating the shooting.
Officers were called at about 1:20 p.m. Saturday to a home at Grand Avenue and 102nd Street on a report of a domestic violence incident. Moore told the Board of Police Commissioners that Herrera emerged from the front door as officers approached the front porch, holding"what appeared to be a black assault rifle."
Herrera fell to the ground holding the Airsoft rifle and was handcuffed. Moore said officers later determined the weapon was an Airsoft rifle"manufactured to replicate an assault rifle."
