A man was shot and killed by South Pasadena police investigators who were attempting to serve a warrant at a home in a Burbank neighborhood Thursday morning, authorities said.

The two investigators were following up on a criminal investigation and presented a court order to someone at the home in the 1400 block of Broadway just before 8:30 a.m., according to Sgt. Cindy Guillen, a spokeswoman for the Burbank Police Department.

“Something went wrong. They got involved in a shooting,” she said.

The man, whose identity has not been released, was pronounced dead at the scene. No officers were injured.
