The coroner’s office released Saturday the name of a man found dead inside a Long Beach home in the Wrigley neighborhood after a woman in the home confronted police and was shot to death.

He was Justin Lomako, 49, of Long Beach.

Officers and Long Beach firefighters responded to a residence in the 2800 block of Golden Avenue, about two blocks north of Willow Street, at about 5:15 a.m. Friday on reports of a man who appeared to have suffered a heart attack and a woman threatening suicide, according to a Long Beach Police Department statement.

Officers entered the residence and noticed a large amount of blood before they were confronted by a woman armed with a rifle, police said. The officers left the residence, formed a perimeter and made repeated attempts to persuade the woman to surrender, according to officials.

The woman went to the door of the residence and officers made further attempts to get her to surrender, according to the statement. Officers said the woman pointed the rifle at them and they shot her.

She was pronounced dead at the scene. No officers were injured in the shooting.

The coroner’s office has not yet released the woman’s name or her relationship to Lomako. Investigators believe the two knew each other, but no further details were made available.
