Los Angeles, California - On July 27, 2022, at around 11:00 a.m., a Central Traffic Division officer was conducting a collision investigation on Broadway, south of Avenue 19, when he was approached by citizens who advised him that a man with a gun was down the street. The officer visually confirmed the information and broadcast a backup request for a “415 Man with a Gun” and provided a suspect description and location.

Hollenbeck patrol officers responded and located the suspect walking north on Broadway passing Avenue 19. The officers made contact with the suspect, identified as 31-year-old Marcos Maldonado, and ordered him to drop the gun. Maldonado turned and pointed an object at the officers, which appeared to be a handgun, resulting in an Officer-Involved Shooting. Maldonado was struck by gunfire. The Los Angeles Fire Department responded and transported Maldonado to a local hospital where he was pronounced deceased. No officers were injured during the incident.

Maldonado was in possession of an object believed to be a handgun. Further inspection determined the object to be a pellet gun resembling a P226r or P220r handgun.
