Police ends standoff with knife-wielding suspect who tried to rob a Koreatown bank

A knife-wielding suspect accused of trying to rob a Koreatown bank is in a standoff with Los Angeles police. 

Police first learned about the situation at a bank on the 2700 block of Olympic Boulevard at about 1:40 p.m. According to the police, the suspect exited the bank and is now in a standoff with police. 

A SWAT armored vehicle was seen blocking a black vehicle. Officers in tactical gear were stacked up behind the armored vehicle and watching the vehicle that the suspect is barricaded inside. 

A robot appeared to be assisting the police. 

After about an hour, police deployed gas into the suspect's car forcing him out. He inexplicably stood on top of a parking barrier before being detained by police.
