CALIFORNIA: Guy High on Drugs is Killed by "Less Lethal" Force

[HIGHTECHDUDE]

Crazy dude got shot with a Taser with no effect. Then he's shot with five bean bags and one of them goes thru his chest and kills him...

FULLERTON, (March 29, 2024) — Fullerton Police Officers responded to a restaurant located in the 1300 block of S. Brookhurst Rd on March 6 at 3:01 am regarding two males that were standing at the front of the doors, possibly under the influence of drugs. The reporting party, who was the manager of the business, was concerned for the employees’ safety as they began to arrive for work.

Officers arrived on the scene and contacted one shirtless male adult, who was uncooperative with Officers’ commands. The male began swinging a belt at officers as they attempted to contact him. Additional officers were requested, and once they arrived, they utilized a taser to attempt to subdue the suspect, which was ineffective.

The suspect continued to act erratically and was uncooperative as he refused to comply with officers’ commands. Officers then utilized a less lethal kinetic energy projectile and struck the suspect, allowing officers to take him into custody. At this time in the investigation, it is believed the suspect sustained a significant injury to the chest area as a result of the use of the less lethal kinetic energy projectile.

Officers began life-saving measures while paramedics responded. The suspect was transported to a local trauma center, where he was later pronounced deceased.

The suspect was identified as Alejandro Campos Rios, 50 years old, and a resident of Buena Park.

I actually live near here lmao holy fuck. Within a mile.

The article is a little misleading. He wasn't swinging the belt ar officers. He was just swinging in. Honestly they never even tried to approach just resorted to less lethal...and killed the guy.

Man slaughter at the least. They need better training for sure.

The result of being tasered ? Your trousers just fall down
Another guy who was immune to an electric shock, his cocktail of drugs, obviously helped him to ignore the shock..

Wanna bet these guys recently crossed the southern border illegally? At least they didn’t kill any American citizens.

Quite the music man he was. May he rest & hear taps being played as the reaper took him away.
