An off-duty Los Angeles Police Department officer self-quarantining after testing postitive for coronavirus fired at an apparent car burglar in front of his home early Monday.

The officer went outside at around 2:10 a.m. and saw a man trying to get into his car parked in the 22000 block of Cass Avenue in Woodland Hills, said Officer Rosario Cervantes, an LAPD spokeswoman.

The officer confronted the man, who appeared to have a weapon, prompting the officer to pull out his sidearm and fire. The man was not hit and ran away.

Cervantes said the officer had been confined to his home after he tested positive for coronavirus.

Detectives who investigate LAPD officer shootings were told about the officer’s positive test.

As of Sunday, at least 26 LAPD employees, both sworn and non-sworn, have tested positive for coronavirus. All of them have been asked to self-quarantine; none have been hospitalized.

Detectives did not have a detailed description of the car burglary suspect.
