Bodycam video of 17-year-old armed robbery suspect shot, killed by police in Long Beach
According to the LBPD, at 8:36 p.m. on April 26, a 911 caller in the 6800 block of Cerritos Avenue called police to report a person with a gun inside their residence.
“Through their preliminary investigation, officers learned this was an armed home invasion robbery, where the male suspect entered the home and demanded items from one teenage victim and two adult victims,” authorities said in their original press release, which was issued the day after the shooting. “Officers also learned the suspect was still in the yard of the home, armed with a firearm.”
Upon getting the three victims out of the home, officers located the armed suspect and “engaged in verbal de-escalation for over an hour” while they attempted to get him to surrender.
The newly released footage shows the masked suspect approaching the home armed with a crowbar before forcefully entering the home through a steel security door. After fleeing to the backyard, one responding officer located him inside a shed and ordered him to drop his weapon and exit multiple times.
The suspect could be heard vehemently denying the officer’s commands from inside the shed, and eventually started threatening to kill himself or have one of the officers kill him.
“He has a gun pointed at his head right now,” one officer is heard saying.
During the standoff, the suspect made “multiple demands” including requesting water, which he was given, police said.
Later, at 9:59 p.m., over an hour and a half after the original call came out, the suspect pointed his weapon towards the officers, causing one of the officers to discharge his service weapon.
The suspect was struck once in the upper body and rushed to a hospital by Long Beach Fire Department paramedics; however, he succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced deceased.
A replica firearm was recovered at the scene, police said. The suspect was later identified as a 17-year-old boy from San Bernardino, but due to his age, his name was not released.
No officers or members of the community were injured in the incident.
“Detectives also learned there was an accomplice the night of the incident who fled the scene before officers arrived,” LBPD said.
Further investigation led to police identifying the accomplice as 18-year-old Iskay Mota of Modesto; he was arrested on May 1 in Stanislaus County, Long Beach authorities confirmed.
Mota was transported to the Long Beach City Jail, where he was booked for robbery and held on $100,000 bail. Inmate search records indicate he bonded out on May 3.
