Cops Hunt For Wounded Jewelry Store Robbery Suspect


LOS ANGELES (AP) — Police have detained two suspects in a downtown Los Angeles jewelry store robbery and shooting and are seeking a third.

Los Angeles police Sgt. Robert Hernandez says someone was shot during the Thursday evening robbery but he did not know if the victim was a jewelry store employee.

He says the third suspect also was injured and that officers trailed him to a nearby apartment building by following the trail of his blood.

Suraya Fadel reporting for KCAL9 believed the injured suspect was stabbed during a fight with a store employee.

Hernandez says the suspect is believed to be contained in the building.
