Oh, come on guys — he’s right there!”
That’s what a traffic reporter in a helicopter exclaimed Friday as he watched Los Angeles police officers run past a suspect hidden behind a blue car parked in an alley.
At least six Los Angeles police officers initially failed to spot the suspect who first crouched behind the vehicle and then laid on his stomach a few feet from them.
Aerial footage captured the officers blow past the suspect in one direction, return — some in a sprint — and zip by the suspect again.
Los Angeles police did not respond to requests for comment Friday regarding the circumstances that preceded the video.
The incident was broadcast on Fox’s KTTV. Someone in the helicopter reported the action and did not hold back.
A representative from the TV station declined to comment Friday.
