Baldwin Park Police responded after a victim was fatally shot; Officer Samuel Riveros was shot by the suspect during a standoff while working to warn bystanders of the danger
The sentence came after a three-week trial which ended with a jury acquitting Guy Rivera of first-degree murder, but convicting him of manslaughter, attempted murder and gun charges
The new policy states that pursuits must be restricted to instances where officers have probable cause that a suspect committed a violent crime and is armed and dangerous
After being surrounded by protesters, the officers got in their vehicle and were starting to drive away when a protester “reached in and sprayed a chemical agent,” the LAPD stated
The suspect referred to himself as a “Friendly Federal Assassin” in writings he sent to family members minutes before the attack
