A pursuit that began in Beverly Crest and terminated in front of the Beverly Hills Police Department (BHPD) headquarters on April 18 led to the arrest of a woman for suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon, according to police. The street in front of BHPD headquarters, Rexford Drive, was cordoned off to traffic and pedestrians for about 30 minutes, but the incident took place in Los Angeles. The woman, whose name was not immediately released, allegedly fired a shot into the ground during a dispute with another woman in Beverly Crest, according to the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD). The incident occurred about 9 a.m. in the 9500 block of Highridge Place, LAPD
reported. BHPD Sgt. Ryan Dolan told the Courier that the department’s involvement in the case came about by chance. “Our officers were assisting the Los Angeles Police Department with a high risk stop of a felony suspect, but it’s not our case,” he told the Courier. “They were in pursuit and it just happened to be stopped in front of our station.” According to the LAPD, the women were involved in a "residential property" dispute when one of them fired a shot and drove off. The other woman was not wounded, police said. With City News Service
