LAPD: Christian Wood Fires to Repel Suspects in Sherman Oaks Break-In Attempt

The suspects fled in a gray Jeep after a back-door breach during a period of rising San Fernando Valley break-ins.

Overview

  • Police say three suspects forced entry through the back door around 1 p.m. Wednesday at a home on the 14800 block of Otsego Street.
  • Christian Wood, a former Lakers forward, fired multiple rounds into the ground, which caused the intruders to flee.
  • The suspects were last seen heading toward Sepulveda Boulevard in a gray Jeep Grand Cherokee, and no arrests have been made.

  • Detectives are gathering surveillance and witness statements; police say Wood was staying at the property as neighbors describe the house as an Airbnb.
