Glendale PD releases video of police shooting that left suspect wounded who had a gun shaped lighter
On Sunday, April 28, near 51st and Myrtle avenues. That afternoon, 26-year-old Gohan Kancab allegedly stole a pair of scissors from Sine Ace Hardware, then returned to the store and began “recklessly waiving” what appeared to be a gun at employees and customers.
He then left again, and a store employee called 911.
“I’ve got a guy in our parking lot. He’s got a gun, and he’s smoking something,” the employee told a dispatcher. “He was just in our store, stole some stuff, ran out. He’s sitting by our light pole smoking something.”
Another witness told dispatchers that the suspect was still carrying what appeared to be a black handgun outside.
“He pulled it out of his backpack,” the witness said. “Now he’s holding it in his hand. He’s at the bus stop at 51st.”
Moments later, the first responding officer spotted the suspect at a bus stop outside the store.
Dash-mounted and body-cam video shows the officer stop in the street, get out of his patrol SUV, and order the suspect to raise his hands. The suspect is seen walking toward the officer and reaching into a backpack.
He then points an object at the officer, who then fires several rounds. Backup arrived, and officers took the wounded suspect into custody.
Officers also provided medical aid to Kancab before he was taken to the hospital. He was later treated, released and booked into the Maricopa County jail on several felony charges.
The object he was carrying was actually a lighter that resembled a .380 semi-automatic handgun. Per court documents released in the days after the shooting, Kancab told investigators he used the lighter to smoke fentanyl pills and that he pointed it at the officer because he was “scared and stupid.”

Body cam footage shows Ceres police shoot knife-wielding suspect who attacked officer
Body camera footage was released Friday of an incident that saw police shoot and kill a knife-wielding suspect who attacked an officer in Ceres on May 10.
The Ceres Police Department said officers responded that day to a report of a man waving a knife at family members during an argument at an address on Dirk Court.
That man—Alexander Yepez Ortega, 22—ran from the scene when the officers arrived, but was found about half an hour later hiding in a vehicle on 6th Street.
At one point, Yepez Ortega exited the vehicle and waved the knife at the law enforcement officials who were trying to get him to surrender. That is when officers shot him.
The video released Friday shows officers with their guns drawn on Yepez Ortega while he is sitting in the passenger seat of the vehicle with the door closed. The officers repeatedly tell him to keep his hands up where they can see him and to open the door.
As an officer walks around the vehicle and opens the driver's side door, Yepez Ortega exits the passenger side and swings the knife at another officer—it is from the body cam of this officer that we are seeing footage of the encounter.
As Yepez Ortega tries to attack the officer, he is shot multiple times and falls to the ground. He died at the scene.
The officer suffered injuries in the knife attack and was taken to an area hospital.
"I think I got stabbed in my arm," the officer is heard in the video telling another officer.
When dispatchers were initially provided Yepez Ortega's name, it was learned that he had a warrant out for his arrest for assault with a deadly weapon and domestic violence in Modesto. His criminal history further contains incidents of vehicle theft, DUI, violating a criminal protective order and leading police on a chase.
No other injuries were reported.

Canton Ohio K9 officer on leave after video shows police dog attacking man lying on stomach
An Ohio K9 officer is under investigation after police body camera video captured the officer’s dog appear to attack a man on his stomach with his hands behind his back, authorities said Friday.
The officer, Nicholas Casto, was placed on administrative leave while the inquiry into Thursday's incident north of downtown Canton is underway, a spokesman for the Canton Ohio Police Department said in a brief statement.
“I take these occurrences very seriously," Canton Mayor Christian Turner said in a separate statement Friday. "I understand the community will have questions, and I will ensure that my office will be forthcoming with information as it becomes available."
The incident occurred after a traffic stop, when authorities found an open bottle of liquor in a car that had been pulled over for taking a "sudden turn" to a curb, according to a police department investigative report.
During a search, officers found a gun under a car seat and placed the driver and a passenger in handcuffs, according to the report. A crowd gathered in the neighborhood where the stop occurred and became combative with officers, the report states, and was ordered to leave the area.
The report states that two men in the crowd allegedly threatened a police dog at the scene and that Casto, the animal's handler, said one of the men had been warned enough and should be arrested.
Casto's body camera captured the man appearing to address the animal, but it isn't clear what he said. Casto can be heard saying he was "about to put this guy in cuffs."
"Say one more thing to this dog," Casto can be heard saying on the video as he approaches the man, who is standing in the front yard of a home next to children.
"Go inside or you're going to jail," an officer can be heard saying moments before Casto says that the man is under arrest for taunting the dog.
Officers approached the man and appeared to be placing him in handcuffs or trying to place him in handcuffs, the video shows. The author of the investigative report, who was at the scene, wrote that he saw the man immediately begin resisting when the officers approached.
The video shows three officers take the man to the ground. While the man lays on his stomach with his hands crossed behind his back, Casto can be seen approaching him as the dog repeatedly lunges toward the man's arms.
As people in the crowd scream, the video shows, an officer can be heard telling the man to stop resisting.
The dog appeared to grab the man's arm, but the video did not show any blood. After Casto pulled the animal off the man, another officer can be seen placing him in handcuffs and walking him to a police vehicle.
"Good boy," Casto can be heard telling the dog.
Four people were arrested at the scene, including the two men involved in the traffic stop and two from the crowd. The latter were arrested on suspicion of disorderly conduct, resisting arrest and obstruction, according to the report.
One of the men also faces charges of assault on a police officer. The other was accused of making threats to a police K9, the report says.

Body Cam Footage Of Early Morning Rescue Of Family From Bedford House Fire
A potential tragedy was avoided early this morning thanks to the quick actions of police and firefighters who arrived on the scene of a suffocating house fire.
Early Friday morning, shortly before 3 a.m., the Westchester County Emergency Communications Center received a 911 call from the resident of a Park Ave. home in Bedford Hills, reporting her house was on fire and that she and her two children were trapped in the smoke and unable to escape.
Once Bedford patrol units quickly arrived on the scene, they found a 35-year-old woman in distress hanging out of a small bathroom window. The woman told officers that her two children were still trapped inside the home.
Bedford Hills FD 1st Asst. Chief Patierno, along with Bedford Police Officers Jordan Baschnagel, Ronald Sauber, and Joseph Sagliano, forced a door off the rear porch where they faced heavy smoke. Despite limited visibility, they followed the sounds of a 10-year-old child crying out from just inside the doorway in the kitchen and were able to pull him out of the smoke-filled house.
In order to locate the second child, officers began breaking windows and removing air conditioner units.
Once again, despite not being able to see through thick smoke, they hear a faint cry coming from an elevated window. Officers climbed a small ledge and were able to access the window and remove the terrified 9-year-old boy.
The woman and two children were taken to Westchester County Medical Center by the Katonah-Bedford Hills Volunteer Ambulance Corps, where they were treated for smoke inhalation.
The Bedford Hills Fire Department maintained the scene and quickly put out the fire.
"I am grateful to the first responders who rescued a mother and two children from a house fire in Bedford Hills last night," Bedford Town Supervisor Ellen Calves said in her weekly newsletter today. "Disaster was averted by the bravery of those on scene, especially the Bedford PD officers who entered the smoke filled building to save a trapped child. Thanks also to the volunteer agencies that aided in the rescue and put out the blaze."
Officials say they do not believe the fire was suspicious in nature.

Bodycam shows Houston police injured an armed suspect after he shoots at officers
Charges have been filed against a suspect who fired shots at Houston police officers and was wounded by an officer at 722 Country Place Drive about 7:40 a.m. on Saturday (May 4).
The suspect, Jesus Pedraza, 32, is charged with three counts of aggravated assault against a public servant in the 184th State District Court. Pedraza sustained gunshot wounds and was treated at an area hospital. He was then taken and booked into jail. A booking photo of Pedraza is attached to this news release.
No officers were injured in the shooting. Officer F. Sifuentes discharged his duty weapon in the incident. He was sworn in as an officer in August 2016 and is assigned to the Westside Patrol Division.
HPD Special Investigations Unit Sergeant D. Lane and Detectives N. Arellano, J. Montalvo and W. Elliott reported:
Officers were dispatched to a suspicious person with a weapon call at the residence at the above address. While en route, the officers were given the description and location of the suspect and notified that he had possibly fired a handgun outside his residence. Upon arriving on scene, the officers observed the suspect sitting in a lawn chair outside an open garage.
When initial contact was made, the officers observed the suspect to be wearing what appeared to be a bulletproof vest and a gun belt. As the officers attempted to talk with the suspect, he retreated into the open garage and un-holstered a gun. He then pointed the gun in the direction of Officer Sifuentes, who then discharged his duty weapon toward the suspect, striking him.
The suspect continued to retreat toward the interior of his residence after an unknown female opened the door leading from the garage into the residence. As the suspect retreated into the residence, he discharged his gun multiple times towards the officers, but none of them was struck.
After the suspect retreated into the residence, officers set up a perimeter around the exterior and phone contact was made with the suspect and his mother, who were inside the residence. The suspect's mother agreed to open the front door of the residence and place the suspect’s gun outside on the front porch. She then left the door open, and officers were able to take the suspect into custody without further incident.
The suspect was transported to a local hospital where he was treated for non-life-threatening gunshot wounds. He was then taken to the Joint Processing Center and Harris County Jail.

Carlsbad police bodycam shows an officer shooting at a suspect after being attacked with a skateboard
The Carlsbad Police Department released body-camera footage Thursday of an incident where an officer shot at a man who was accused of hitting him in the head with a skateboard back in March.
The officer, who was identified only by last name in the new video, shot at suspect Kyle McCord three times, but did not strike him, immediately after being struck in the head. The video released by the department has been edited with text, added graphics pauses and other details.
On March 29 at around 11 p.m., Carlsbad Police Officer McKinney pulled into a parking lot on the 1000 block of Carlsbad Village Drive near the I-5 overpass after his cruiser was struck with a rock.
McKinney requested a supervisor and both were surveying the damage when, a man, identified as Kyle McCord, came up behind McKinney and whacked the officer on the head with a skateboard, according to the San Diego Police Department, who is investigating the incident due to a memorandum of understanding that prevents law enforcement from investigating their own actions.
McCord's attack was captured on the sergeant's body-worn camera. According to the video, McCord used the wheels and the side of the skateboard to strike the officer. After the assault, McCord is seen running away. Officer McKinney drew his service weapon while seeking cover and shot three times as McCord ran west through the parking lot, according to investigators. Neither McCord nor anyone else was struck by gunfire.
The sergeant chased McCord for approximately three blocks where additional officers arrived at the scene and McCord was taken into custody for attempted murder of a police officer and committing a felony while on bond or release, according to the video.
McCord was wearing a mask and gloves at the time of the attack, according to the video.
Officer McKinney was taken to a local hospital and treated for a skull fracture, brain bleed and concussion, according to the video.
San Diego Police Lt. Steve Shebloski told NBC 7 on Monday that investigators don't know why McCord allegedly launched what appeared to be an unprovoked attack on the officer, whether McCord was under the influence of drugs or alcohol, or if has some sort of mental illness.

Bodycam shows Mooresville police officer warns town council member about speed
A Mooresville police officer warned a town council member “you can’t be doing 21 over” and “don’t look good for the town” after the officer clocked the elected official going 71 mph in a 50 mph zone.
The interaction happened on April 20 and was captured on a dash camera and body camera.
In the first clip, grainy dash camera video shows the officer is driving southbound on State Road 67, a busy road that cuts through the town of 10,000 people and has a speed limit of 50 mph.
The dash camera video shows the officer flip a U-turn, head north, and then after a minute the video ends at 11:11 am.
The officer’s body camera picks up three minutes later at 11:14 am, with 71 mph visible on the radar in front of him.
The officer pulls into a car wash, steps out and talks to Mooresville town council member Josh Brown, who is in the middle of cleaning out his Mustang convertible.
Officer: You're going a little fast up 67.
Brown: Oh, not me, you know that.
Officer: Yeah, you were going 71!
Brown: I was?
Officer: Yeah. You might want to slow down a little bit.
Brown: Alright.
Officer: Can't be doing 21 over my man.
Brown: My speedometer's probably off.
Officer: Yours?
Brown: It said 60.
Officer: You were doing 71 on the radar.
Brown: (inaudible)
Officer: You can't be doing 21 over. Don't look good for the town!
Town council member Josh Brown talks to a police officer while cleaning his car.
The total interaction lasted less than a minute.
The officer did not get close to Brown, nor did he ask for the council member’s license or registration.
Brown did not receive a written warning.

St. Louis County officer fatally shoots murder suspect after he killed a driver at a gas station
The video, begins with a satellite view of a QuikTrip convenience store and the surrounding area in the 10700 block of West Florissant Avenue. Police said that's where a Ferguson police officer fatally shot Joshua Campbell after Campbell fatally shot the driver of a vehicle he was riding in.
“At approximately 1:33 a.m. (on April 16), two men traveling together in a white Ford Escape arrived at (the) convenience store…. The driver, who is also the victim in this case, entered the store to make a purchase,” Cunningham said.
At about the same time, the officer parked his patrol SUV in front of the store.
Subsequent surveillance video showed both men inside the store making purchases and returning to their vehicles several minutes later. The driver of the Escape, identified as Detarius Haynes, 26, drove toward the gas pumps before stopping.
As the officer was walking to his SUV, he heard gunfire. He placed his purchased items on the hood of his vehicle and ran toward the Escape.
“The officer heard additional gunfire and observed a victim fall from the driver’s seat. An armed suspect climbed out of the vehicle from the driver’s door,” Cunningham said.
Slowed video from the officer's body camera showed him running toward the Escape with his service weapon drawn. Haynes' body, while blurred, is visible on the ground.
The officer gave the suspect “verbal commands,” which he ignored. The officer then fired his gun, striking Campbell. Campbell, 18, ran toward West Florissant Avenue before he collapsed, police said.
About 25 seconds after the incident first started, the officer radioed to dispatchers that shots were fired, and the suspect was down.
Cunningham said a 9mm pistol belonging to Campbell and 10 shell casings were recovered at the scene.

Bodycam shows shooting suspect being fatally shot my Aurora police when he returned to the scene
The Aurora Police Department released a 911 recording and bodycam footage Thursday of the fatal shooting by two of its officers on May 4 of Jose Luis Rodriguez-Balderrama, a suspect in an earlier shooting at an apartment near 1400 Clinton St.
The victim of the original shooting called 911 to report that Rodriguez-Balderrama, a 28-year-old Aurora resident, was sitting on the couch of his apartment with a gun pointed at his own head. Shots can be heard and the victim cries “Ow, he just shot me in the leg” and later reports to the dispatcher that he is hiding in a nearby apartment.
Aurora officers tried to pull over a driver in a red Mustang, the description given for Rodriguez-Balderrama’s car, but called off the chase after a short pursuit. When officers arrive at the scene, the shooting victim shows them his injury and provides more detail on the incident, saying that Rodriquez-Balderrama was a friend.
Police officers are seen waving off neighbors, telling them to return to their homes unless they were witnesses. During the interview with the victim, people nearby are heard shouting “He is here” and “He in the alley.” Officers run to the opening between the row of apartments, and Rodriguez-Balderrama can be seen peering into a window near the victim’s apartment with a gun in hand.
One of the officers shouts “Jose, Jose” and then something else. They open fire, hitting him. Emergency responders arrive to treat Rodriguez-Balderrama, who is still alive. A Glock 22 with 40-caliber ammunition is shown at the scene. The gun was modified to hold more than 20 rounds and fire automatically, according to Aurora police.

Phoenix Police released bodycam when an officer shot, killed a homicide suspect in north Phoenix
The Phoenix Police Department has released body-camera video of when an officer shot and killed a homicide suspect in north Phoenix earlier this month.
Officers first responded to a shooting near 33rd and Northern avenues on May 16. That’s where they found 29-year-old Brandon Russell shot. He was rushed to a nearby hospital and later died from his injuries.
At that scene, police learned that Russell and 23-year-old Devin Montgomery were involved in an argument just before the shooting and Montgomery ran away from the scene, investigators said.
Detectives then tracked him down at an apartment complex near 25th Avenue and Cactus Road around 4:45 p.m.
At the complex, an officer first spotted Montgomery trying to speak with someone there, but was unsuccessful.
That officer, who was in an unmarked police vehicle, reportedly saw two handguns in Montgomery’s hand when he arrived.
The video shows that the suspect appears to fire multiple rounds toward the officer’s patrol vehicle before running away.
The edited video shows that the officer then chases Montgomery as police say he continues firing rounds.
A few moments later, Montgomery is seen falling to the ground as it appears the officer shot him.
No audio of that initial gunfire was captured because the body-worn camera wasn’t fully activated until the officer detained that suspect, investigators said.
Police say that officers then tended medically to Montgomery before he was rushed to a nearby hospital. He later died from his injuries.
Police also showed the two handguns that Montgomery allegedly had when he was detained.

Body Cam Video Shows Fugitive Jumping into Pond to Escape Police
Duson police have apprehended Daylon Richard, a 21-year-old Lafayette resident wanted for a 2021 murder, after a body cam video captured his desperate attempt to flee by jumping into a pond.
Richard, who was also facing charges including attempted second-degree murder and had missed court in Acadia Parish, was located using advanced crime cameras installed throughout Duson.
Duson Police Chief Kip Judice highlighted the effectiveness of this new technology, stating, "Those crime cameras are valuable in that they don't take a day of vacation. They are never sick. They don't show up late for work. They operate 24 hours, seven days a week."
The video footage reveals officers locating Richard at a local gas station.
When he spotted the police, Richard bolted from the scene, crossed the street, stumbled, got back up, and ultimately leaped into a nearby pond to evade capture.
"About halfway across, he realized that he did not have the energy to make it, so he turned back and swam back to the side, still refusing to get out of the pond," explained Chief Judice.
When the police first approached Richard's vehicle, they discovered two other individuals inside, one of whom was his grandmother. Chief Judice noted that Richard's grandmother was unaware of the severity of the situation. "She now knows all the circumstances, but she was unaware that her grandson failed to show up in court and that he was actually wanted," he added.
Richard is currently in custody at the Acadia Parish Jail, awaiting his appearance before a judge.

SAPD releases bodycam video of Fiesta shooting that left two dead
The San Antonio Police Department released bodycam video Wednesday from a deadly shooting that took place during a Fiesta event April 28.
The shooting took place in the 100 block of Concho Alley during the Fiesta event Fiesta de los Reyes.
While officers were working their post near the stage, SAPD said a suspect, now identified as 20-year-old Albert Cisneros, shot toward another suspect, identified as Mikey Valdez, in the middle of the large crowd.

Cisneros later died after being taken to a hospital.
Two other bystanders reportedly were hospitalized with non-life-threatening injuries, and two others were treated at the scene.
SAPD said that the sergeant involved was also struck with debris.

When Turner exited the vehicle, he held a large kitchen knife to his chest and throat.
After members of the Negotiations Response Team arrived, Turner refused to comply and ignored numerous verbal commands to drop the knife. Deputies deployed a less-than-lethal device because of his ignorance, which caused Turner to drop the knife.
Turner was arrested and received immediate medical attention before being transported to the hospital.
“I want to commend all the deputies on their extraordinary patience and for relyingon their training throughout the roughly 30-minute period,” Sheriff Emery Gainey said. “Each of you did an exemplary job at coordinating and de-escalating the incident to produce a favorable outcome for this event.”
Turner was booked into the Alachua County Jail for resisting without violence and has pending charges for felony domestic battery and felony child abuse from Pinellas County.

Williamson Co Sheriff’s releases dashcam showing motorcycle chase that crashed into a patrol vehicle
The Williamson County Sheriff’s Office released dash cam video of a patrol vehicle being hit by a motorcyclist, leading Herrin police on a chase.
According to the sheriff’s office, they released the video and addressed some public comments regarding the crash. They said they requested Illinois State Police investigate the crash “in the interest of transparency.”
The crash happened around 12:50 a.m. on May 26 when a stationary Williamson County Sheriff’s Office patrol vehicle was hit by a motorcycle at the intersection of Illinois Route 13 (Deyoung Street) and Carbon Street in Marion. The motorcyclist was involved in a chase with Herrin police at the time, and the patrol vehicle did have its emergency lights on.
According to the sheriff’s office, the patrol vehicle that was hit was one of numerous patrol vehicles stopped at major intersections along the path of the chase to prevent other drivers from crossing into the path of the fleeing motorcycle.
The dashcam video from the lead patrol vehicle in the chase shows the motorcyclist leaving his lane before the intersection, crossing a traffic lane to the north and heading toward the patrol vehicle.
Deputies say the video shows the motorcyclist start to veer right a few seconds before hitting the vehicle, but failed to miss the push number of the vehicle by inches, resulting in the crash.
They say the motorcycle was going nearly 100 miles per hour when it came up to the intersection.

Los Angeles Police Injured, Suspect Arrested After Knife-Related Altercation
An altercation involving a knife-wielding man and Los Angeles police resulted in an officer's injury and the arrest of the suspect, officials said. According to the LAPD Newsroom, the incident occurred in the early hours of April 27 when police responded to an Assault with a Deadly Weapon call on West 105th Street.
Dominique Langlois, 34, was reportedly uncooperative with responding officers, becoming combative and retreating to his bedroom when they tried to engage him. After backup arrived, Langlois then complied and was handcuffed, but later spat at the officers, escalating the situation to a "Categorical Use of Force" by the LAPD's definition.
The suspect was taken to a local hospital, where he was cleared for booking and subsequently transported to the 77th Street Regional Jail. Langlois now faces charges for battery on a police officer, based on the reported events leading up to his arrest. The only reported injury from the clash was an officer's finger abrasion, and no other officers or community members were harmed.
