Sacramento, California – On October 18, 2022, two Sacramento County Sheriff SWAT team members fatally shot a man who reportedly threatened violence and came out of a south Sacramento home holding his girlfriend and a shotgun. The deadly shooting occurred just outside the home in the 3900 block of 41st Street, just south of 14th Avenue in an unincorporated neighborhood of Sacramento County. Vincent Martinez, 55, of Sacramento was later identified as the man shot by deputies, according to the Sacramento County Coroner’s Office. The incident began about 10:10 a.m. as a reported domestic violence incident. Inside the home was the suspect, his girlfriend, his adult daughter, his daughter’s boyfriend and his 3-year-old granddaughter. The caller told dispatchers she believed her father was “intoxicated and under the influence of methamphetamine.” The sheriff’s SWAT team and hostage negotiators arrived at the home and started communicating with the suspect who was still inside with his girlfriend. Sgt. Kionna Rowe, a spokeswoman for the Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office said negotiators first began speaking to the suspect via a loud speaker before speaking to him on the phone. “They had him on the line, and he was making statements that he was going to shoot, he wanted to shoot a cop,” Rowe said. The suspect spoke to negotiators about some unknown male, asking for him to come back into the house. Rowe said the suspect threatened to “come out shooting,” if the unknown male didn’t return within five minutes. She said the suspect shortly after threatened that deadline to three minutes. About 10 minutes later, the suspect “unexpectedly” opened the home’s front door and appeared holding his girlfriend and the shotgun, Rowe said. At that point, the SWAT team had already surrounded the home. Rowe said two deputies fired their guns, striking the suspect. She said nothing was said between the suspect and the deputies in the moments before the shots were fired.
