UPDATE: As of 5 p.m., on November 29, 2024, both area residents and media were waiting at the intersection of Pacific Coast Highway and Carbon Canyon Road as they were not allowed to enter into an area where there was an earlier active shooting incident in the 220000 block of Carbon Mesa Road in Malibu which was first reported at approximately 1:50 p.m. The suspect was arrested a little before 3:30 p.m. and no one was injured. According to Sgt.

Sgt. Saucedo confirmed that no one was harmed in the incident which culminated with the defendant surrendering to a SWAT Team. After the defendant is booked into custody, he will await his initial arraignment, which would most likely be held Tuesday, December 2 in Los Angeles County Superior Court in Van Nuys, according to Saucedo.
