Officers arrested a homeless man Monday morning for allegedly stabbing a Long Beach resident during a burglary.
Long Beach police said the burglary occurred around 5:10 a.m. along South 4th Place next to Alamitos Beach. Officers found the victim with non-life-threatening stab wounds to his upper body.
Police believe the victim struggled with the suspect during the burglary before he was stabbed. Although the suspect disappeared before police arrived, they found him nearby.
Anthony Bartolo Olivas, 46, refused to surrender to police until they shot him with 40mm less-lethal rounds. Paramedics took Olivas to the hospital after police arrested him.
He was arrested for burglary and assault with a deadly weapon. Olivas will be held on $50,000 bail.
