Robert Hollis is seen in an image provided by the DMV.

Police were called to the 800 block of Glenway Drive (map) at about 12:45 p.m. Thursday to assist Los Angeles County Fire Department personnel, the Inglewood Police Department stated in a news release.

Police did not confirm details of what they found in the apartment but homicide detectives were called to the scene.

The victim, identified as Robert Hollis, was discovered by his son, who went to check on his legally blind father after friends and family had been unable to contact him.

Hollis had been decapitated and his head was not with the body when it arrived at the coroner's office, said Lt. David Smith of the Los Angeles County coroner's office.

Hollis was described as a man with a "smile as big as his heart."

"You'd see him sitting right here on Sunday waiting for a ride to church," neighbor Sahir Champion said. "Always smiling, just a genuine good guy."

Video showed crime scene tape blocking the stairway of The Villa Glen apartment building while authorities conducted an investigation inside.

The victim's sliding glass door on his balcony was also open.

No further information on the Police Department's investigation were immediately available.

Authorities were searching Tuesday for a second Special Olympics athlete from the Ivory Coast who disappeared the night before he was due to fly home, according to the Inglewood Police Department.

Abidjan Ouattara, 24, was last seen around 11 p.m. Monday at the Adventurer Hotel in the 4200 block of West Century Boulevard where he was staying, according to a news release from police.

His coach reported him missing Tuesday morning after discovering Ouattara walked away from the hotel and never returned, the release stated.

Ouattara speaks only French and has a “physical impairment to his left hand and forearm,” police said.

He was last seen wearing a white athletic jacket with a blue or orange T-shirt and white pants.

A second member of the Ivory Coast team disappeared from Los Angeles International Airport on Monday morning. The 15-year-old was later found in Inglewood.

Police released surveillance video Thursday in their search for an armed robber who has struck multiple times in both Inglewood and Los Angeles.

A surveillance image of an armed robbery was provided by the Inglewood Police Department on Oct 15, 2015.

In the video, a man dressed in black is seen approaching a cashier counter where two other men are standing in line.

The robber then taps one of the men and gestures for him to move out of the way before pushing the second man and pointing a gun into the cashier's window.

Both of the customers quickly run from the gunman who can be seen leaning into the window and taking items from the counter.

After putting some of the items in his pocket, the robber turns and walks out of view of the camera.

The same man was believed to be involved in six armed robberies that took place in Inglewood between June 10 and June 17, the Inglewood Police Department stated in a news release, which listed the locations.

• Dollar Tree on North La Brea Avenue - June 10
• Tomato Market on South Prairie Avenue - June 10
• Metro PCS store on West Manchester - June 13
• Subway on South Prairie Avenue - June 14
• Chevron on Century Boulevard - June 16
• Jack in the Box on West Century Boulevard - June 17

The video released Thursday was dated June 16. It was not immediately clear why police were putting out word about the robberies some four months after they occurred.

In each of the six robberies, the suspect was described as a black man between the ages of 25 and 35, standing about 6 feet tall and weighing from 150 to 180 pounds with what was described as a "slim build."

He was said to be seen wearing a "Mo-hawk" or "Fo-hawk" during the crime spree time frame.

He also appears to have used the same semi-automatic handgun in each of the six robberies, according to the Police Department.

In addition to these robberies, investigators identified the same man as being responsible for three more armed robberies at businesses in Los Angeles during June.

Anyone with information was asked to call the Inglewood Police Department's crime tip line at 310-412-4353.

Witnesses told detectives that the incident took place about 11:10 a.m. in the 2800 block of West Imperial Highway, according to a news release issued by the Inglewood Police Department.

The men approached the victims as they were walking to their car -- a silver, late-model, four-door Mercedes-Benz sedan with tinted windows and chrome rims, the statement said.

"Once at the driver's door the suspects forced the victim to turn over her car keys, then forced her and the child to the rear of the vehicle, opened the trunk and forced them both inside," the release said. "After closing the trunk both suspects entered the passenger compartment of the victim’s vehicle."

The car headed northbound through the parking lot, then eastbound on Imperial Highway and out of sight, according to witnesses.

The woman was described as black, in her 20s, light-skinned, wearing a blue denim jacket, blue denim pants and a multicolored scarf.

The baby was said to be black, with braided hair, wearing a diaper and a pink T-shirt.

Two people involved in a pursuit, including one who was struck by a vehicle while fleeing, were being sought by Inglewood police on Sunday.

The pursuit began at an unspecified location when officers spotted an unreported stolen vehicle, Inglewood Police Department Lt. Kirk said.

The vehicle fled onto the northbound 405 Freeway and crashed into the freeway’s center divider near West Century Boulevard.

All three occupants fled, including a passenger who was struck by a passing motorist. The accused driver was later detained.

Police searched for the two passengers, and contacted area hospitals for the possibly injured person, on Sunday, Kirk said.

An adult and an 8-year-old girl were left lying in the street by a hit-and-run driver for whom Inglewood police were still searching on Monday.

Inglewood police provided this image of a vehicle similar to one involved in a hit-and-run crash on Nov. 25, 2015.

Officers responded to La Brea Avenue and Queen Street about 5:30 a.m. Nov. 25, the Wednesday before Thanksgiving, according to a news release issued by the Inglewood Police Department on Monday afternoon.

The adult victim and the girl were discovered lying in the street; they were hospitalized for moderate-to-severe injuries, the release stated.

A witness reported the victims were walking in a marked crosswalk when a vehicle traveling southbound on La Brea ran a red light and struck them.

The car — described as a dark green or black Nissan Altima — initially pulled over but then fled, continuing out of sight southbound on La Brea.

The vehicle was “more than likely” to have front-end damage and possibly a broken windshield, the release stated.

The older victim was walking with her granddaughter when the pair were struck, leaving the woman in a coma, according to a KTLA viewer who said she was the woman’s sister.

Traffic investigators were reviewing surveillance videos to try to find images of the crash.

The incident began about 3:10 a.m. when uniformed officers responded to a call of an occupied vehicle that was stopped and facing westbound in the second lane at the intersection of Manchester Boulevard and Inglewood Avenue, according to a news release from the Inglewood Police Department.

When they arrived, the officers saw an armed female inside the car, police officials said in the release.

They took a position of cover before ordering both occupants out of the vehicle, the release stated.

The officers then opened fire on both occupants, but police did not say what exactly prompted the shooting.

Several witnesses told KTLA they heard multiple gunshots, with one describing the sound as being like firecrackers going off.

"I heard gunshots -- like, pow, pow, pow, pow, pow -- multiple gunshots," said one woman. "More than six rounds."

The allegedly armed female was pronounced dead at the scene; the male occupant was taken to a local hospital where he was later died from his injuries.

Their identities and ages have not yet been released by officials. Relatives and friends of the woman said she was Kisha Michael, a mother of three boys. Michael's loved ones told KTLA that they were unaware of deceased male's identity.

Police recovered a weapon at the scene, and secured and retained it for evidence, the release stated.

No additional information was released about the double fatal shooting. Investigators blocked off the street and remained at the scene for several hours after the incident.

On Sunday evening, several people gathered at the shooting location and created a makeshift memorial.

A friend of Michael's, a man who gave his name only as Jamar, remembered her as "a great mother."

"I don't feel like, I mean, even if it was a firearm -- I don't think she did that," he said. "I just can't see that coming from her."

A 47-year-old Inglewood man was convicted Thursday of nine counts of premeditated attempted murder of police officers and the  kidnapping and rape of a 14-year-old girl during a nine-hour standoff in 2013.

Jurors also found Christopher Warsaw guilty of nine counts of assault on a peace officer with a semiautomatic firearm, two counts of false imprisonment of a hostage and one count of possession of a firearm by a felon, according to a news release from the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office.

Officers with the Inglewood Police Department were called to the 10700 block of Fifth Avenue on Nov. 27, 2013, after neighbors reported seeing Warsaw dragging his girlfriend’s screaming 14-year-old daughter into a home, the release stated.

During the nine-hour standoff that followed, Warsaw opened fire on police, shooting one Inglewood officer in the chest, according to prosecutors. Police said the officer was likely saved by his bulletproof vest.

The shootout was partially caught on cellphone video by a neighbor who described the scene as a “war zone.”

Police were eventually able to take Warsaw into custody and free his girlfriend and her daughter, who were held hostage during the ordeal.

Warsaw is facing life in prison without the possibility of parole, plus multiple life terms, at his sentencing, which is set for April 15.

The shooting was reported just before 4 a.m. Sunday in the 3700 block of West 109th Street, according to an Inglewood Police Department news release.

The man found sitting in the car — later identified by the coroner’s office as Andre Jamal Bayyan, 27, of Los Angeles — was pronounced dead on scene.

Bayyan was working for ride-hailing service Uber, the San Francisco-based company confirmed, saying it was helping police in the investigation.

"We are deeply saddened by the loss of Mr. Bayyan to this senseless act of violence. Our thoughts and condolences are with his friends, family and loved ones,” an Uber spokesperson said in a brief statement.

A longtime friend provided this photo of Andre Jamal Bayyan to KTLA on March 21, 2016, a day after he died.

Bayyan was on a trip for Uber at the time, but the company could not confirm whether he had picked up any passengers.

A friend told KTLA the victim was a father and the primary caregiver for his young son.

"He was a great father. This is really hard for me," friend Paulette Smith said. "He was always there for me when I needed him, and he's going to be very missed. He's going to be missed by a lot of people."

Police have not provided a description of the killer, and residents said they were on edge while the search for the shooter continued.

Anyone with information was asked to call police at 310-412-5246 or, to remain anonymous, 888-412-7463.

Two Inglewood police officers were driving in the area of the station at 1 W. Manchester Blvd. around 11 p.m. when they encountered the suspect who pointed what appeared to be a handgun at them, according to a news release.

“An officer involved shooting occurred and the suspect was struck by gunfire,” the statement read.

The suspect was treated on scene by the Los Angeles County Fire Department but was later pronounced dead, officials said. That person was only identified by officials as a male subject.

The two officers involved in the shooting were not injured.

Upon closer inspection, the item that the suspect was in possession of was determined to be a BB gun designed to look like a .44 Super Magnum handgun, authorities stated. The replica handgun and a knife were recovered at the scene, Lt. Oscar Mejia told KTLA.

Surveillance video preliminarily showed the suspect pointing the BB gun at his head and then aiming at officers, according to officials. However, a possible motive was not known.

A BB gun is pictured in photos provided by the Inglewood Police Department on June 23, 2018.

“That’s what we’re trying to determine at this time if it was a suicide by cop or what his motive was,” Mejia said.

The lieutenant went on to say that de-escalation is part of the department's protocol, but it depends on the circumstances and the incident specifically.

"Officers have to look at their options and then take whatever action is appropriate," he said.

Investigators announced Saturday afternoon that a family member of the suspect contacted them earlier in the day, at about 10:45 a.m., to report him missing. That person also said the subject struggled with mental health issues and that he left a suicide note at his home, which was retrieved and booked into evidence.
