A gunman killed by sheriff's deputies last week as he held hostages inside a Downey BBQ restaurant had been named a person of interest in a murder case, authorities said.
Eddie Tapia, 41, was shot by deputies Sept. 10 after an hours-long chase that started when an L.A. County Sheriff’s helicopter saw him carjack a driver at gunpoint.
After Tapia drove through eight cities, CHP officers performed a PIT maneuver in Downey outside Chris’ & Pitt’s restaurant, causing him to crash. Tapia ran from the car, fired at least one shot into the air and entered the restaurant. He was killed during the restaurant standoff.
