The Riverside County Sheriff's Department said on Twitter early Sunday morning that the "suspect has been taken into custody."
Police have not released the suspect's identity. No further information was immediately available.
Palm Springs police Chief Bryan Reyes said two officers trying to resolve a family dispute were killed Saturday when a man they had been speaking with suddenly pulled out a gun and opened fire. A third officer was wounded and remained hospitalized.
The chief identified the slain officers as Jose "Gil" Gilbert Vega and Lesley Zerebny.
