A parolee arrested in the shooting of a parole officer in Lake View Terrace will be charged with attempted murder of a police officer, authorities said Thursday.
Steven Hoff, 45, evaded officers after he shot and seriously wounded a patrol agent Wednesday afternoon, authorities said.
He was arrested in Lake View Terrace after an hours-long manhunt that shut down part of the busy 210 Freeway and forced two schools to be locked down.
Law enforcement officers were looking for the suspect Wednesday because he had allegedly violated his parole.
They were near a trailer in Lake View Terrace when they heard gunfire about 1:30 p.m., and a parole agent was struck in the face.
The agent was taken to a hospital, where he was in serious condition Thursday.
