Medical Emergency

Canby Ave, Reseda, CA 91335

Police units are sent to an apartment on Canby Avenue for a possible suicide attempt. The person involved is reported to have a kitchen knife. Multiple officers respond and coordinate by radio. The parents at the address initially refuse to come outside and say their front door is locked. Officers instruct that the knife be left in the kitchen and later confirm it has been put back in a drawer. The person then comes outside, described as a male wearing a brown jacket and tan shorts, and says he is not armed. Officers take the person into custody and clear the incident. Other radio traffic mentions an earlier suspect leaving an auto parts store and a separate open-door call on Lamona Avenue, but the main incident is the possible suicide attempt with a knife at the Canby Avenue apartment.
