The use of force by police resulting in the 2020 death of Juan Carlos Ayon Barraza in Richmond was 'reasonable under the totality of the circumstances,' according to a report from the Contra Costa County District Attorney's Office released Thursday.
RICHMOND - The use of force by police resulting in the 2020 death of Juan Carlos Ayon Barraza in Richmond was"reasonable under the totality of the circumstances," according to a report from the Contra Costa County District Attorney's Office released Thursday.
Oakland police responded to the bicyclist's 911 call and located the van and the suspect. A chase ensued through Oakland city streets and onto the freeway, ending in Richmond. Police said during the freeway pursuit, Barraza twice waved a firearm at officers and rammed the van into a patrol car at South 37th Street near Carlson Boulevard in Richmond, hitting an officer and trapping another in his car.
The Contra Costa County coroner's office performed an autopsy on Barraza the next day, determining he died from a gunshot wound to his head and chest area, the District Attorney's Office said in a statement Thursday.
