(AP Photo\/Jae C. Hong, File)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h5>OAN Newsroom<br \/>UPDATED 1:33 PM PT \u2013 Friday, August 27, 2021<\/h5>\n<p>A gunman has been shot and killed by police after he opened fire at a California beach pier. Lt. Brandon Dean of the Los Angeles Sheriff\u2019s Department, said they were alerted to an active shooter threat late on Wednesday at the Redondo Beach Pier, just southwest of Downtown Los Angeles.<\/p>\n<p>Reports said the suspect is described as a male in his mid-30s who happened to be walking by when he began firing at people on the pier, hitting a teenager and an adult. The suspect then fled and was found by police nearby with a handgun and a knife.<\/p>\n<p>He was killed while being taken into custody. \u201cAt one point he had a semi-automatic handgun, as well as a large knife, which prompted an officer involved shooting,\u201d said Lt. Dean.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Redondo Beach PD on scene with a shooting incident on the Redondo Beach Pier.  Please avoid the area.  If you are at a restaurant or business on the pier \u2013 or know someone who is on the pier, please stay inside until further notice.

And then as we started leaving, literally a few seconds later we see everybody running after us, and we just started running ourselves,\u201d said Patrick Shafik.<\/p>\n<p>A local resident said it\u2019s unfortunate that something like this occurred in an area that is usually peaceful. \u201cNormally it\u2019s such a good place to live. I\u2019ve lived here for years, and I just hate anything like this happening. The state of the world seems to be going downhill,\u201d said Redondo Beach local, Greg Costigan.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, police say the teen and the adult, who are related, are in stable condition. No officers or additional people were injured.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/wash-officials-discover-and-eradicate-murder-hornet-nest\/\">Wash.
