CALIFORNIA (LAPD<\/strong>) – Los Angeles Police Department\u2019s (LAPD) Force Investigation Division is investigating an Officer-Involved Shooting (OIS) in Newton Division.<\/p>\n

On July 2, 2022, around 9:40 p.m., Newton Division Gang Enforcement Detail (GED) officers saw a man who appeared to be under the influence walking in the area of 36th Place and Maple Avenue. The officers attempted to stop the man, later identified as 30-year-old Jesus Rodolfo Torres, when he walked away with his hands in his pockets. Torres refused to follow the officer\u2019s directions and the officers requested additional officers to the area. When additional officers arrived, one officer fired a 40mm less-lethal munition at Torres. He was struck by the round and fell to the ground. While on the ground, Torres, had a handgun in his hand. The officers told Torres to drop the gun. Torres did not follow the officer\u2019s commands and began to raise the handgun; resulting in an Officer-Involved Shooting. The suspect was struck by the officers\u2019 gunfire and taken to a local hospital where he was pronounced deceased.<\/p>\n
