The killing of a Santa Ana city councilman's cousin in September wasn't the first deadly shooting for some of the Anaheim police officers involved.
including the Parker shooting with Panov.released by Anaheim police last month, officers chased Lopez, the councilman’s cousin, for 35 minutes through Tustin, Irvine and Santa Ana. After his car became stuck on streetcar tracks that were under construction, Lopez remained inside the vehicle for several hours as police commanded him to exit.
The video shows that about 30 minutes before Lopez was killed, a Santa Ana officer reports that he spoke with a member of Lopez‘s family who said he wanted to be killed in a “suicide by cop.”Gallacher explains in the video that Anaheim police decided to shoot a “chemical agent” into the car “with the hopes that it would encourage him to surrender.” After a nearly four-hour standoff, police deployed gas and a flash-bang at the car.
Gallacher said that a gun was not found. Instead, police found an empty plastic water bottle inside a black Guess bag underneath Lopez’s body. A note from Lopez was found in the car, along with a knife and drug paraphernalia. “We never want to see loss of life involving our police, but we take issue with the narrative,” Lyster said. “Each incident involving our police is unique and needs to be looked at on its own. Seeking to draw conclusions from different incidents does a disservice to all involved.”The Lopez family filed a claim Nov. 21 seeking $20 million in damages from the city of Anaheim, contending that the officers used “excessive and unreasonable force” against Lopez.
