Man opens fire on the CHP

NEW: Man opens fire on a California Highway Patrol officer in Compton, California during a "street takeover" event on Monday morning.

The thug was seen running up to the officer before firing multiple shots. The patrol car then sped off.

It's unclear at the moment if the individual has been identified.

Just days earlier, a San Bernardino police car crashed during a pursuit involving another street takeover event.
