A man who allegedly brandished a weapon at a sheriff's
 deputy and then led law enforcement on a chase through Long Beach and into
 Paramount died at a hospital this morning after being shot by SWAT team members
 at the end of a four-hour standoff, authorities said.
    It was unclear where the alleged weapon offense occurred, but the chase
 began at about 10:55 p.m. Thursday, Los Angeles County sheriff's Deputy Don
 Walker said.
    The man drove west on the Artesia (91) Freeway in Long Beach, exited at
 Cherry Avenue and then headed north into Paramount, where he appeared to
 intentionally steer the SUV he was driving into a tree in the 7400 block of
 Jackson Street just west of Garfield Avenue, according to live broadcasts of
 the pursuit.
    He remained barricaded in the vehicle early until just after 3 a.m.,
 when sheriff's SWAT team members fired shots at the SUV, wounding the man,
 according to a witness at the scene.
    The suspect, in his 20s, was taken to a hospital, where he died at 3:41
 a.m., coroner's Assistant Chief Ed Winter said. The suspect's name was
 withheld, pending notification of kin.
    No deputies were injured, Gomez said.
    ``A handgun belonging to the suspect was recovered at the scene,'' Gomez said. LOUDLABS NEWS
