You can clearly see the typo in the circled image.
We’ve included LA Weekly’s response to the typo shortly after.
To be fair to the LA Times, they were quick to apologize to their readers and acknowledged the typo.
Below is a comment by LA Times Deirdre Edgar who tweeted the following on the same day.

So enjoy!
(joking aside, we pray this situation gets resolved as quickly as possible)
