No official reports or body worn footage regarding this shooting on September 25th, 2021 in Huntington Beach, CA have been released yet. Luckily, for the time being we do have some by-stander footage we can share with you.
What we do know of this situation, is during an event held on Sep. 25th; "Surf City Surf Dog 2021" and "US Open of Surfing", at around 3:15 p.m. Huntington Beach officers spotted a suspicious man carrying a firearm on the beach. Without body worn footage, we have not yet discovered the events which occurred prior to the engagement, however in the footage the suspect can be seen holding what appears to be a firearm under his shirt, pointing it at responding officers.
As the male suspect raises his arm, four shots can be heard, ultimately resulting in the man falling backward onto the beach. Now located on the ground, the man appears to attempt to regain possession of his firearm, when officers begin shooting an additional ten, or more rounds. Despite life-saving treatment, the man was later pronounced deceased.
The adult Hispanic suspects identity is being withheld at this time during the ongoing investigation. Additionally, during a press release from the Huntington Beach Police Department, they stated the man was non-compliant and ignored multiple commands from officers, which ultimately led to the events captured in the footage we have provided to you. Police did also confirm the man was in possession of a firearm, which was recovered from the scene and booked as evidence.
