Maria Cecelia Rosa, 30, of Pomona, was shot in the 2900 block of Eucalyptus Avenue, said Long Beach police Officer Jackie Bezart.
"She did suffer a gunshot wound. She was transported to the hospital and declared dead at the hospital," said Long Beach sergeant David Cannan.
Rosa, found shot in the driveway with a bullet wound to the upper body, was taken to a hospital, where she was pronounced dead.
Police say the deputy was shot beside her car. NBC4 reports that she was getting ready to go to work and was armed, but not dressed in uniform. Neighbors say they heard the gunfire around 6 a.m. Tuesday morning.
Police blocked off the area two blocks in each direction and went to doors to question neighbors.
Rosa owned a home in Pomona, but she lived with a friend in Long Beach because it was closer to work.
Relatives tell NBC4 that she worked in the Los Angeles jail system.
A tow truck removed the deputy's car as evidence Tuesday morning.
There were no immediate arrests, and the circumstances of the shooting were under investigation, Bezart said.
