Pasadena Officer Wounded, Suspect Killed in Shooting

  • On Monday, March 2, 2026, Pasadena Police Department officers responded to the Sierra Madre Villa Metro station around 7:30 p.m., where a gunfight left a suspect dead and a Pasadena police officer wounded.
  • Responding officers found a shooting victim at the station and then pursued a suspect matching the description on foot for about three blocks, police said.
  • The wounded officer was taken to hospital and underwent surgery Monday night, with footage showing a large law-enforcement deployment and the suspect's body nearby.
  • Late Monday, the scene remained very active as robbery and homicide detectives responded and L.A. County district attorney's office investigators began probing while the initial shooting victim and an officer were hospitalized.
  • Pasadena Police Chief Gene Harris described responding to 'shots fired' calls as 'bone chilling' and said officers had gone to the Sierra Madre Villa station, officials said.
