“These two men were loved,” interim El Monte Police Department Chief Ben Lowry said Tuesday night. “They were good men, they paid the ultimate sacrifice serving their community, trying to help somebody.”
The officers “confronted the suspect,” according to LA County Sheriff’s Department Homicide Bureau Capt. Andrew Meyer, and there were two trades of gunfire, one inside the motel room and an additional one in the parking lot of the motel.
A handgun was located at the scene, Meyer said.
