EL MONTE, Calif. - A suspected gunman was killed and a 6-year-old hostage was shot in the leg during a two-hour standoff with police Tuesday afternoon that began when the man snatched the child off a sidewalk and barricaded himself in a restaurant east of Los Angeles.
The man, whose name has not been released, was declared dead at the restaurant in El Monte soon after gunshots were fired, said Los Angeles County sheriff's Sgt. David Infante. He would not say who fired the shots or how the gunman died.
