Man dies in gun battle with Riverside County sheriff’s SWAT workforce in Colton



A person died in a gun battle with Riverside County sheriff’s deputies who have been serving a search warrant in Colton early Wednesday, March 27, the Sheriff’s Department stated.

The sheriff’s SWAT workforce went to a house within the 900 block of North Vista Way searching for a suspect in a sequence of armed robberies, a information launch stated. Deputies ordered these inside to come back out, and a girl exited and was detained.

“A male remained contained in the residence and began taking pictures at deputies from inside, and a deputy-involved taking pictures occurred,” the discharge stated. “When gunfire ceased, deputies cleared the residence and situated the suspect. He was pronounced deceased on the scene.”

Deputies discovered a firearm close to the person, the discharge stated.

Sheriff’s spokeswoman Sgt. Sergeant Wenndy Brito-Gonzalez declined to say Wednesday night whether or not the person died by gunfire from deputies or from his personal gun, and whether or not the person killed was the person sought with the warrant.

His id was being withheld till his relations may very well be informed of his dying.

The deputy who fired might be positioned on paid administrative go away per division coverage. An investigator from the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department will lead the evaluation of the taking pictures.

That division asks anybody with info on the case to name 909-890-4909.
