A man shot by police at a Home Depot in Burbank was taken to Providence Hospital, where he died from his injuries.

The shooting occurred at around 4 p.m. Saturday in the parking lot of the Home Depot at 1200 Flower St., east of the Golden State (5) Freeway.

The suspect is said to have called police claiming he was in a vehicle in a parking lot at the store, armed with a gun, and that he was going to shoot people.

According to a statement by Burbank PD, “When the officers arrived, they located the man still seated in a vehicle… The officers and the man had a brief verbal exchange followed by the suspect’s aggressive actions, which precipitated an officer-involved shooting.”

Police did not say whether a gun was recovered at the scene.

No pigs or shoppers were injured during the shooting.
