A knife-wielding 20 year-old who had said that he wanted police to kill him was fatally shot by officers at his house in North Long Beach Tuesday afternoon.

Long Beach Police Department responded to a 9-1-1 call made from a woman inside a residence on the 1900 block of Hardwick St. reporting that her stepson, David Jordan, was inside the house, armed with a knife, threatening her and yelling that he wanted the police to kill him.

When officers arrived at the residence, they attempted to remove the two females that were inside with the suspect in an attempt to avoid them becoming hostages. While at the front door, however, suspect David Jordan approached and lunged at one of the officers with a knife, causing the officer to discharge his weapon. The suspect threw the knife at the officers and then armed himself with a second knife. When he again moved towards the officers in a threatening manner, he was shot a second time.

Police say officers attempted to perform CPR on the suspect until paramedics arrived, but Jordan was pronounced dead at the scene. Additional knives were found inside the house.

“The Long Beach Police Homicide Detail is conducting an extensive investigation to identify the circumstances of the shooting,” LBPD said in a statement. “The Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office is conducting an independent investigation of the shooting, as they do with all officer involved shootings that occur in Los Angeles County that result in injury or death.”

This is the LBPD’s fifth officer-involved shooting so far this year, the most recent one taking place just a few blocks away from Tuesday’s when one man was killed and another injured following a takeover robbery at a nearby Rite-Aid .
