During the confrontation, another person at the scene fired shots at the suspect, who then fled before officers arrived, according to the outlet.
The woman was taken to a hospital. Her condition has not been disclosed.
In the newly released video, LVMPD’s drone unit can be seen tracking the suspect from above as he attempted to escape.
The video shows the suspect moving on foot through the area, darting between buildings and parked cars while officers close in from multiple directions.
At one point, the suspect is seen running alongside a large retail building before heading into a nearby lot, with patrol units quickly moving in on his location.
Officers were able to use the aerial view to quickly locate and arrest the suspect without further incident.
The video drew praise online, with commenters calling the technology "incredible" and thanking officers for their service, while others highlighted the role drones can play in safely tracking dangerous suspects.
Police said the individual who fired the weapon was also detained as part of the ongoing investigation.
Officials say the case remains under investigation, but the video underscores how police are increasingly relying on drone technology to respond to fast-moving, violent situations and apprehend suspects more efficiently.
"This is another example of how our drone program is helping officers respond faster, track suspects more effectively, and protect lives in critical moments," police said in a statement accompanying the video.
Authorities have not released the identities of those involved, and no further details have been released.
