SWAT swarms LA apartment after ‘shots were fired at a Trump car caravan’ 

SWAT teams reportedly swarmed on an LA apartment complex on Sunday afternoon, following reports of possible shots fired on a street where a large caravan of Trump supporters was passing through.

A woman driving past the caravan in Woodland Hills said she heard what sounded like gunshots around 11:30am local time and then noticed her tire was flat after being damaged by a projectile, possibly a bullet, LAPD said. 

Another witness told police that they had seen a person with a firearm stood on the balcony of a nearby apartment building in the 20600 block of Ventura Boulevard.

Police say they later obtained a photo of a man holding a rifle on a balcony of the same apartment building. The kind of rifle he was holding wasn’t specified.

It’s still unclear whether any shots were fired. Tactical teams were said to be attempting to draw the alleged shooter and two others out from the apartment block at around 3:30pm after they reportedly barricaded themselves inside.

Officers locked down the building and evacuated nearby units, LAPD said. It wasn’t immediately clear whether all of the three suspects were believed to be armed. 

LAPD previously said the initial calls reported that someone had been throwing bottles at passing vehicles and brandished a gun in the area of Ventura Boulevard and Chalk Hill.

The Pro-Trump caravan had been passing through the area, with its final destination slated for Studio City.

There were no reports of any injuries and the caravan continued on its planned route, police said.

No further details were immediately available.

This is a developing story…

NewsColony Volunteers book hotel room for homeless man with SingapoRediscovers vouchers © The Independent Singapore Singapore — A group of volunteers from the Mummy Yummy Singapore welfare organisation donated their SingapoRediscovers Vouchers to book a hotel room for a homeless man. The man, who was identified as Jayden, did not have a place to live while waiting for the Housing Board (HDB) to allocate him a rental flat. In a Facebook post on Mummy Yummy Singapore’s page on Wednesday (Dec 16), the volunteers said: “We used our $100 Rediscover Singapore vouchers to redeem hotel stay for him and successfully booked 9 days worth of stay at 3 days per voucher.” They added that they were unable to book a longer stay because of higher hotel rates over Christmas and New Year. The volunteers hoped that they would be able to bridge Jayden’s stay until he got a flat. “Thanks our government for giving us these vouchers which in return we can put them to good use for people in need,” th...
