Police: Officer Killed in Los Angeles Shootout With Man Who Claims He Killed 3 Relatives

WINNETKA, CALIF. — A man barricaded himself in a house after telling police he had killed three relatives, then opened fire on a SWAT team Thursday, killing one officer and wounding another, police said. Ten hours after he initially called police, the house was on fire.

After the man and police exchanged gunfire just after midnight, he apparently remained in the house, which was on fire around 7:30 a.m Thursday.

Flames shot out of the windows and smoke was coming out on several sides of the house. Firefighters sprayed the house with water, but did not go into the home. It was unclear how the fire started, although tear gas had been used.
