San Diego, California – On August 23, 2022, San Diego Police were called to the 1500 block of Bridgeview Drive just after 8 a.m. after receiving reports of an assault with a deadly weapon. According to police, the call came from “a neighbor who said one of two elderly victims knocked on her door for help.” Police said the victims told officers they were attacked by their nephew, Scholar Wang, 48.

Body cam video shows officers tried to call Wang out of the home, but he did not comply. After entering the home, officers deployed a K9 and bean bag rounds after noticing a barricade blocking the hallway. “After 90 minutes and multiple deployments of pepper spray, an officer forced open the bathroom door after attempts to communicate with Mr. Wang failed.” Bodycam video footage shows Wang swung a black metal bar at the officer before the officer retreated. When police again deployed the K9, Wang used the bar to hit the dog. Police said officers then moved closer as Wang raised the metal bar above his head. That’s when one of the officers fired his duty weapon.

Wang was taken to the hospital where he later died. The K9 suffered a cut to its head. No officers were injured.
