The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department says a disturbance between a boyfriend and girlfriend sent Monterey Park police to a motel shortly after midnight Friday.

Officers arriving at the motel saw a car leave and two patrol cars pulled it over.

Investigators say at that point, a passenger got out and brandished a handgun.

He was shot and died at the scene. His name hasn't been released.

Authorities say they found a gun at the scene.

No officers were hurt.
