Officers responded to the 300 block of North La Brea Avenue around 9:30 a.m.


“So an individual had parked a car and stepped away, and somebody around the vehicle had said that they heard that there was a possible device in the car,” LAPD Lieutenant Alan Bone told KNX News’ Pete Demetriou.

Demetriou reported that four bomb technicians, explosive detection dogs, and a bomb robot were on the scene.

The 100 to the 300 block of North La Brea Ave. was blocked off during the investigation.
