The LA Times is reporting that there is at least 1 dead and 3 injured.
From The Daily News:
An officer-involved shooting and an apparent stabbing have taken place near the CNN building in Hollywood, the Los Angeles Police Department confirmed Tuesday.
The shooting was reported around 2 p.m. at the corner of Ivar Avenue and Sunset Boulevard, but the number of injuries were unclear, said LAPD Officer Aareon Jefferson.
CNN reporter Maeve Reston witnessed some of the chaos and said on Twitter that she saw the suspect run down Sunset trying to stab people.
At least one stabbing victim, she reported, was taken away by ambulance.
Unclear how many stabbing victims there are, but suspect ran down Sunset Blvd. trying to stab people outside our CNN office in Hollywood

For people in LA, alleged stabbing/shooting took place near Jack-in-the-box at Cahuenga & Sunset (across from CNN tower). So avoid the area

Complete shutdown of Sunset at Cahuenga, but entire Hollywood division of LAPD appears to be here. So under control.
