Arturo Lopez<\/strong>, 46, died at the scene, according to the coroner’s office. His hometown was not known.<\/p>\n

The shooting happened about 11:35 p.m. Friday, July 3, at 30th Street West and Avenue K-4 in Lancaster, Deputy Trina Schrader of the Sheriff’s Information Bureau said.<\/p>\n

Deputies from the sheriff’s Gang Unit, Operations Safe Streets Bureau, were patrolling in the area, and stopped their patrol vehicle to speak with two people, said sheriff’s Lt. John Corina.<\/p>\n

As deputies got out of their patrol car, Lopez reportedly pulled out an assault pistol from under his jacket, and he was shot, Corina said.<\/p>\n

The suspect’s handgun, a semiautomatic assault pistol, was recovered next to his body, Corina said.<\/p>\n

No deputies were injured.<\/p>\n
