On Sunday, December 1st, 2024, Officer S. Gonzales #3829 and I were working uniform patrol driving a marked black <br />and white police vehicle in the City of Santa Ana, County of Orange. At approximately 1733 hours, I heard a broadcast <br />via radio that Officers had been involved in a shooting in the area of 2nd Street and Broadway. Officer Gonzales <br />#3829 and I responded from the area of Main Street and McFadden Avenue to assist involved Officers. We arrived on <br />scene to assist at approximately 1734 hours. <br />As we were arriving, Officers requested northbound traffic at 1st Street and Broadway to be shut down. I parked our <br />police vehicle near the northeast portion of the intersection to block northbound traffic on Broadway. Officer Gonzales <br />exited the front passenger seat of our police vehicle and assisted Officer Ibarra #3178 and Officer Casillas #3755, <br />who were positioned just north of our vehicle facing northwest. I observed a male subject laying down on the ground <br />near the southeast corner of Casa Linda Furniture located at 116 N Broadway. <br />I observed several pedestrians hiding behind a food truck parked just east of where Officer Ibarra #3178 and Officer <br />Casillas #3755 were located. The pedestrians appeared to be terrified. I ran to the pedestrians and instructed them to <br />enter the Guadalajara Furniture store located at 117 N Broadway, as I feared for their safety. <br />I then assisted Officers at Officer Ibarra's #3178 and Officer Casillas' #3755 vehicle, but was then assigned for crowd <br />control for the southern perimeter. Once the suspect was taken into custody, I assisted Officers with preserving the <br />scene by placing FI cards near spent cartridges on Broadway. Shortly after, Corporal Enriquez #3082 then designated <br />me to transport Officer Ibarra #3178 to the Santa Ana Police Department. <br />At approximately 1751 hours, I transported Officer Ibarra #3178 to the Santa Ana Police Department and I sat with <br />him in the directed patrol conference room. At approximately 2015 hours, I was relieved by Sergeant Padron #2936. <br />My BWC battery died while responding to the scene. <br />I took no further action. <br />Author: Rocheford, Mark 3823 BWC NOT Activated BWC Inactive Reason: BWC battery died while responding <br />Santa Ana PD 2024-26142 Report by Rocheford, Mark 3823 2 of 2
