LAPD SWAT Armed Carjacking Suspect Barricaded Inside Burger King Jefferson & Crenshaw

A Burger King in Jefferson Park was evacuated Saturday night after reports of a possibly armed carjacking suspect hiding inside.

Authorities said they received a call just before 7 p.m. from employees at the fast food restaurant reporting a man acting erratically inside the business.

A suspect was wanted for an armed carjacking that happened in South Los Angeles earlier Saturday. Authorities believed that suspect was hiding inside the Burger King and refusing to come out. Los Angeles police surrounded the restaurant and also evacuated a nearby 99 Cent Store as a precaution. A SWAT team was called out to the restaurant to try and get the suspect into custody. source
