LYNWOOD, Calif. (AP) — A man suspected in a deadly weekend shooting has died in a gun battle with California Highway Patrol officers that shut down a Los Angeles-area freeway. Authorities say the man died at a hospital Tuesday morning after a standoff and shootout on Interstate 105 in Lynwood. CHP officers were investigating a minivan parked on a shoulder of a connector road. Authorities say it matched the description of one carjacked by a man suspected of shooting three family members on Sunday, killing one of them. Other details of the gun battle weren’t immediately released.
