D. emails: “Do you have any news about what was happening at Pico and La Cienega this morning? When I arrived home aprox. 7am (yes, AM, I work nights) there was a helicopter circling for hours warning people to stay indoors. There were also police cars blocking entry to several streets on the west side of La Cienega just south of Pico. There was also a high police presence on La Cienega itself. At around 9am I began to hear sirens which went on for some time.”
ACCORDING TO LAPD: “West Los Angeles patrol units are setting up a perimeter in the area of La Cienega and Pickford looking for a pair of burglary suspects. Please remain indoors and call 911 if you see or hear anything suspicious. Your safety is our primary concern and we appreciate your cooperation and understanding.”
