A perimeter was installed around the shooter to protect the neighbors and help evacuate a worker from the antiparasitic struggle who had covered himself in his work vehicle.

According to the Sheriff’s office, while the swat officers approached the alleged shooter, the suspect pointed a firearm towards the officers, who then shot their rifles, hitting and killing the man. A handgun was found near the suspect, said the sheriff’s office.

On Saturday, the name of the man has still not been published, pending the notification of the next parents.

As part of the county protocol designed to prevent agencies from investigating their own officers, the homicide unit of the San Diego County Sheriff conducts an investigation into the police shooting.

According to Lieutenant Fox of the Sheriff, when the homicide unit ends his investigation, he will then be examined by the office of the County Prosecutor of San Diego to determine if the officers have criminal responsibility for their actions.

The San Diego police service will conduct its own administrative investigation into the police who unload their firearms.

Anyone with information on the incident can call the sheriff’s homicide unit to (858) 285-6330 or after hours at (858) 868-3200. Appellants wishing to remain anonymous can contact crime caps at (888) 580-8477.
