Los Angeles, California — On July 13, 2025, around 9:10 a.m., Central Patrol Division uniformed officers responded to a radio call of an ADW suspect in the area of South Figueroa Street and West Olympic Boulevard. The comments of the call indicated that a male suspect stopped his vehicle in the middle of the intersection, exited, and was swinging a sword at pedestrians. Upon arrival, officers observed the suspect, later identified as 36-year-old Gurpreet Singh, standing in the intersection holding a machete. Officers gave multiple commands for Singh to drop the weapon; however, he failed to comply. Singh then returned to his vehicle, retrieved a water bottle, and threw it at the officers.
He subsequently entered his vehicle and fled southbound on Figueroa Street while waving the machete outside the driver’s side window. Officers initiated a brief vehicle pursuit during which Singh drove erratically and collided with an officer’s vehicle. A short time later, Singh stopped near Figueroa Street and 12th Street, exited his vehicle while still armed with the machete, and charged at the officers, resulting in an Officer-Involved Shooting (OIS). Singh was struck by gunfire and fell to the pavement. The Los Angeles Fire Department responded and transported Singh to a local hospital for medical treatment. A machete, two feet in length, was recovered at the scene and booked as evidence. No officers or community members were injured during the incident.

Incident happened in July, last month..... but just posted to youtube channel yesterday. “Police Activity” is the channel.
Hysterical cops...One of them kept yelling, “Standby” 125 times...
yeah, lots of youtube comments about the cops how messed up they are. Like the Keystone cops. LA has become the wild wild west. It’s crazy out there...
Yeah ... charge armed men while waving a sword around ... get “Indiana Jonesed” ...
He was upset his CDL was revoked.
Gurpreet Singh....Your typical Californian circa 2025.
Suicide by Keystone Cop.
Maybe Singh was on the same drugs as George Floyd.
LOL...good one. :)
at the 2 minute mark the electronic sign above him shows “Poker Face”
Yeah...LA, California, ......it’s even causing people from India to lose it. Crazy......
Not exactly the greatest display of professionalism there ...
Yeah, I noticed that too. By the way, he ended up dead.
Yeah.....I think all the good professional cops left after the defund antica Blm crap went down. Now it’s the keystone cops and copettes...and a lot could afford to miss a meal or 2 or more....
That was probably perfectly legal in Punjab.
hahaha...yeah.
From the initial contact, they never should have let him get back into his vehicle. It put a lot more lives at risk.
I love my cops, but these guys need more training and better leadership.
