A California police officer who opened fire on a suspect with an outstanding warrant struck and killed an innocent bystander instead, authorities say.
A California police officer who opened fire on a suspect with an outstanding warrant “tragically” struck and killed an innocent bystander instead, authorities said Sunday.
Neither the suspect nor the officer, from the Guadalupe Police Department, was immediately identified. The Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Office, which is assisting in the probe, did not immediately provide details about what prompted the shooting but said more information would be released pending an investigation.
One of the officers fired at the suspect but struck Olvera-Preciado, who was sitting in his car nearby. The statement said he was"uninvolved" in the encounter and died"tragically."
