Officer-Involved-Shooting - 25/FEB/2022 - Jamestown Street

 

At approximately 12:18 AM, a disruptive, large group began traveling from Brogue Avenue down to Jamestown Street on foot. Units from the Los Santos Police Department and Los Santos County Sheriff's Department were notified of this large group traveling on foot and they subsequently traveled to the Rancho area in order to provide a visual police presence to deter crime. Once the group had passed the train tracks on Roy Lowenstein Boulevard, they began running towards Jamestown Street. Units began to activate their Emergency Lighting System to intervene with a potential attack as they ran over the road towards the complex before the group began opening fire at officers and members of the public in the Jamestown area. Officers from both the Los Santos Police Department and Los Santos County Sheriff's Department returned fire at the shooters, subsequently leading to a Police Officer from the Los Santos Police Department being struck by gunfire.
