DGD.-rm Received and Acknowledged: cc: File William Hutchinson, Police Officer Date PSPD-005055 DATE: December 8, 2008 - TO: Chief David Dominguez, via C air f ommand FROM: Lieutenant John Booth SUBJECT: Officer Involved Shooting 2008-15 I have read the entire Criminal and Internal Investigation involving this case. I was also present during most of the interview of the victim ( , and the interviews of the officers involved. I also saw the injuries (obvious hammer abrasions) the victim received in this assault. I examined the outside patio where the shooting took place, and reviewed all the photographs involved in this case. There are several areas that I believe needed to be examined to determine if all the rules, regulations, General Orders and laws were adhered to by the officers involved. From all indications, it becomes very apparent that these three suspects were out to participate in a crime spree. The first incident was an attempt to burglarize the residence of Mr. and Mrs. �, who live at =Tiffany Circle South. Mr. awoke up hearing suspicious noises coming from the front of his condo. He investigated and found that the 3 suspects had removed the kitchen screen and were trying to break in. Mr. yelled at the 3 suspects. It was then that one suspect withdrew a handgun and pointed it at him. The others then tried, at least 6 times, to kick in the living room door without success. The suspects left after Mr. yelled that he was calling the police. The second incident occurred when the 3 suspects attempted to enter another condo at �iffany Circle South. This is the home of . At the time, was babysitting three children and heard someone banging on the door. She could also hear someone speaking Spanish. She too called the police and the suspects left. The third and final incident occurred when the 3 suspects broke into the condo at 1125 Tiffany Circle South. This is the home of Mr. . The 3 suspects entered this condo, via the living room sliding glass door, and confronted the lone occupant (Mr.� � inside. They shoved a handgun against his neck, and then pushed him off his chair. Another suspect, who was armed with a hammer, struck Mr. in the head, neck and back several times. The suspects then ordered Mr. to produce valuables and the keys to his car. The suspects finally left his home with several items of value and money. Mr. heard the 3 outside as they were being confronted by the police. A short time later, the officer entered and rescued him. Three officers used force against the suspects. This is the main part of our investigation; insuring that this use of force was within standards of the Palm Springs Police Department. Officer Sam Steepleton was near the front door as the suspect exited. He was there with Officer Larson (and his K-9) and Officer Bridgewater. Each officer had a different PSPD-005056 1218J2008 Page 2 of 3 option for their use of force. Officer Steepleton's assignment was the Taser. As one of the suspects (Daniel Arquieta) exited the front door, each officer indicated that he had something in his hand. That object turned out to be a hammer (and the victim's car keys). Each officer indicates that they felt that there was ample probable cause to arrest Mr. Arquieta; and each indicates that he was preparing to run. At this point, Officer Steepleton shot him with the Taser. This temporarily stunned Arquieta; and he was arrested without injury. I reviewed the Use of Force policy as it pertains to use of the Taser. It states that, to prevent the escape of suspects, the Taser may be used. It is my opinion that Officer Steepleton used the Taser appropriately and within policy on this incident. Officer Bucklin and Hutchinson were in the back of Mr. I home as the 3 suspects were leaving. When the confrontation occurred at the front door (tasering of Arquieta), the other two suspects ran back inside, through the home, and out the back sliding door. Both officers say that they confronted Mr. Goucher. Both officers confirm that he had a black handgun in his possession, and started to point it toward them. Both officers indicate that each identified themselves and told the suspect to not move. In addition, when interviewed, suspect Flores also told detectives that Goucher had a handgun; and that he too heard the officers identify themselves and yell not to move. About two homes east, one of the children that was babysitting also told officers that she heard officers identifying themselves and heard the shooting. The child said that she hoped that the officers were not hurt. Both officers indicate that, after watching a home invasion occur in front of them, where one of the suspects had a gun and another kept hitting the victim with a hammer, they felt they had probable cause to arrest them. When Goucher pointed the handgun at them, both felt their life was in danger and both shot at him. Later, detectives recovered a black BB gun pistol on the patio where Goucher's clothing was cut off by paramedics. again reviewed the Use of Force Policy as it pertains to using deadly force. I believe that both officers felt that if they didn't react immediately they would have been shot by suspect Goucher. It is my opinion that Officer Bucklin and Hutchinson used their duty pistols appropriately and within policy on this incident. Officer Bucklin and Hutchinson then had their attention drawn toward a second suspect who was exiting the same rear sliding door. Both officers indicate that this suspect (Mr. Flores) had a black object in his hand; and both feared it was also a handgun. Both officers told investigators that they ordered suspect Flores not to move. Additionally, when interviewed, suspect Flores also said that the officers identified themselves and told him not to move. Suspect Flores later admitted to turning immediately around and reaching down on the ground. This was the area where Goucher had dropped his gun. Both officers told investigators that they feared that Flores was going for a gun, and both said they shot him. Later, detectives located a black cell phone and glasses (that belonged to the victim) near the clothing of suspect Flores' that was cut off by paramedics. I again reviewed the Use of Force Policy as it pertains to using deadly force. I believe that both officers felt that Mr. Flores was reaching for a gun and if they didn't react PSPD-005057 12/8I2008 Page 3of3 immediately they would have been shot by him. In addition, they did not want suspect Flores to re-enter the home and take Mr. Van Houten hostage. It is my opinion that Officer Bucklin and Hutchinson used their duty pistols appropriately and within policy on this incident. One issue that surfaced during our internal investigation was that Officer Hutchinson, who recently returned from SWAT training, died not have the proper ammunition in his handgun. He had SWAT practice ammo and it was determined that he did not follow regulations and replace the practice ammo with patrol issue ammo. While being a violation, it had no bearing on the different uses of force by Officer Hutchinson. I believe that this is a training issue, and can be rectified immediately by the SWAT staff. In final review, I believe that all three officers used the appropriate force necessary in this incident. Each instance where force was used was examined, and I believe that each officer violated no rule, ordinance, law or General Order in their conduct on this evening in question.

Officers arrive and learn that several suspects had attempted a home invasion robbery with a handgun. Officers start checking the area on foot and locate a residence in the same general area where yelling is heard coming from the interior (Tiffany R. S). Officers check this location and learn that it is an in progress home invasion robbery. Three suspects are seen inside during this robbery. At some point, one suspect exits the front of the residence and is subdued with a Taser. The remaining two suspects exit the rear of the residence where Officers Hutchinson and Bucklin have positioned themselves. A confrontation ensues between officers and suspects which results in both suspects being shot. PSPD-005061 =Tiffany CR. S. Tiffany Cr. S. Shoe impression on front door =Tiffany Cr. S.

Palm Springs Ca 92262 PSPD-005065 M 10-21-2008 at approx 0450 hrs, I received a phone call at any home from Lt. Booth advising me that an officer involved shooting had taken place. Lt. Booth requested that I respond as a member of the Critical Incident Investigation team to conduct an interval affairs investigation of this shooting incident. While en -route to Palm Springs, Lt. Booth called me once again and advised that the incident had taken place at�Liffany Cr. South which is in the City of Palm Springs. I arrived at this location at approx 0545 hrs. I met with Lt. Booth who briefed me on the circumstances of this incident. Lt. Booth told me that PSPD dispatch had received two calls from citizens in the neighborhood reporting attempted burglaries by three suspects. On one of these attempted burglaries, one of the suspects had pointed a gun at the reporting party. Lt. Booth told me that officers arrived in the area and started to search for these suspects on foot. Officers subsequently found a location at Tiffany Cr. South where three suspects were found to be committing a home invasion robbery of the homeowner at that location. Lt. Booth said that one suspect attempted to flee the residence via the front door, and two other suspects attempted to flee via a rear sliding glass door. Lt. Booth said that a confrontation occurred between officers and the two suspects who were attempting to flee via the rear sliding glass door. During this altercation, both of these suspects were shot by Palm Springs Police officers. 10-21-2008 0600 hrs, I entered the crime scene with Sgt. Reyes and Detective Kovaleff for an initial walk through. I learned that there were three separate uses of force by officers in this incident. A Taser was used by Officer Steepleton on a suspect who attempted to flee via the front of the residence, and that two suspects had been shot on the back patio of this same residence. During this walk through, I noted the layout of the crime scene and pieces of evidence for later use in this investigation. 10-21-2008 0700 hrs, I responded to Desert Regional Medical Center where I contacted Sgt. Tokier who was assisting me with this administrative investigation. Sgt. Tokier told me that he had been asked by Lt. Booth to respond to the hospital and stay with the two suspects who had been shot. PSPD-005066 E At this time, Sgt. Tokier told me that he noticed several gun shot wounds on both suspects. He said that the suspect later identified as Cesar Flores appeared to have an entry wound in his right chest area, and what appeared to be a corresponding exit wound on his back. He said that the suspect later identified as Donnie Goucher had what appeared to be a gunshot wound to his right upper chest area, one on the right side of his neck, one on his left hand and what appears to be an entry and exit would across the front of his lower abdomen. Sgt. Tokier told me that he had instructed Officer Mike Donovan to take photographs of suspects Flores and Goucher. For details on these photographs, refer to Officer M. Donovan supplemental report in the criminal investigation binder. While I was at Desert Regional Medical Center, I was informed by Lt. Booth that both officers had given Sgt. Abshire a public safety statement. This statement included how many rounds each officer had fired and the direction they were fired in. Sgt. Abshire's complete supplemental report can be found in the criminal investigation binder. The following is an excerpt from Sgt. Abshire's supplemental report detailing the public safety statement he obtained from Officers Hutchinson and Bucklin I exited the residence and asked which officers fired shots. Officers Bucklin and Hutchinson both said that they fired shots. I then obtained a public safety statement from both officers. Officer Bucklin said that he fired 2-3 shots in a westerly direction at one of the suspects. Officer ucklin did not know ifany of the suspects fired a shot. Officer Hutchinson said that he fired 4-5 shots in a westerly direction at one of the suspects. He knew at least one cif his rounds struck one of the suspects. He did not know if the suspectfired a round, but he did report hearing a "hopping sound" inside the house while the suspects were inside. We searched the area downrange (to the west) of the shooting scene in order to locate any possible rounds. On our initial search, we did not locate any rounds or any other forms of evidence. I removed Officers Bucklin and Hutchinson from the crime scene and had Officer Steepleton escort them to the station and remain, with them until further notice. PSPD-005067 C# I WNPTMMIIIr MIT ME 10-21-2008 0730 hrs, Sgt. Tokier and I left the hospital en -route to M Tiffany Cr. S. which is the location of the first attempted home invasion robbery reported to PSPD. At this time, I requested that Sgt. Tokier handle the crime scene portion of this administrative investigation. Sgt. Tokier and I toured this crime scene with Officer Flinn and noted the screen removed from the residences kitchen window and also what appear to be shoe impressions on its front door. Refer to Officer Flinn supplemental report for details of this crime. 10-21-2008 0741 hrs, Sgt. Tokier and I return back to the crime scene at tiffany Cr. S., where I briefed Sgt. Tokier on this, crime scene as it had been explained to me earlier by Lt. Booth. Sgt. Tokier and I toured this scene where I brought to his attention the pieces of evidence pertinent to our investigation. For any further crime scene information, refer to Sgt. Tokier Supplemental reports. 10-22-2008 1600 hrs, Officer Hutchinson and Officer Bucklin were scheduled for administrative interviews in regards to this officer involved shooting. Both officers had been previously interviewed by criminal investigators in this case. However, an administrative interview was conducted to obtain more infon-nation specific to the administrative review of this incident. Refer to the officer interview section of this report for further details. 10-30-2008 1000hrs, I reviewed the CD of 911 calls to PSPD dispatch in regards to this officer involved shooting. There were a total of two calls to 911 from citizens involved in this incident. The first call came from_ at MTiffany Cr S. -reported to dispatch what could be considered an attempted 459 PC burglary or 212.5 PC home invasion robbery. The information that -provided to dispatch is consistent with the statements that both Officer Hutchinson and Officer Bucklin recall receiving during their initial response to this address. The second 911 call in this incident came from =Tiffany Cr. S. This caller identified as called to report loud banging on her front door and someone speaking Spanish. The information that _provided to dispatch is also consistent with the information that both officers recall PSPD-005068 having after this reporting party was interviewed. A compact disk of these 911 recordings is attached to this report. Refer to the attachments sections for this CD. 10-30-2008 1030 hrs, I reviewed PSPD dispatch tapes and event record call log of this officer involved shooting. The radio traffic is consistent with. both Officer Hutchinson and Officer Bucklin's recollection of the information broadcast and the chronology of events based on the officer's interviews. The event record/ call log has time stamped significant pieces of radio traffic as they were broadcast by officers in this incident. However, some radio traffic is not contained within the event record, but is present on the dispatch tapes. The following is a chronology of events as they occurred by time. I used both the event record and the radio traffic tapes in determining this time line. All of the times noted below were on 10-21-20108 04:03:42 hrs 911 call from witness 04:25:54 hrs—Officer Bucklin advises officers are checking south side of buildings. 04:28:19 hrs—Officer Hutchinson advises that suspects dressed in black- In progress home invasion robbery. 04:28:29 hrs--Officer Hutchinson advises suspects are trying to steal victim' s car. 04:29:00 hrs—Officer Hutchinson advises suspects are pushing victim around. 04:29:06 hrs—Officers advise that address is =Tiffany Cr. S. 04:29:18 hrs---Officer Bridgewater advises that suspects are corning out of the front door. 04,:30:06 hrs—Officer Hutchinson advises that shots are fired with two PSPD-005069 12 suspects down. 04:30:59 hrs—Officer Hutchinson requests medical aid. 04:31:32 hrs—Event record of fire call 9200806733. Fire department dispatched to call of shooting victim. 04:37:31 hrs—PSFD arrives at IlWiffany Cr. S. Note: The PSPD dispatch event record shows Officer Hutchinson advising shots fired at 04:30:06 hrs, and then at 04:30:59 hrs he requests medical aid for the suspects. This delay of 53 seconds is not an accurate timeline for the officers requesting medical aid for the suspects. In listening to the dispatch tapes of this incident, Officer Bucklin requests medical aid within ten seconds of Officer Hutchinson advising shots fired. Officer Bucklin's request for medical aid traffic is not listed on the event record. The PSPD dispatch tapes and event record/call log is contained within the attachments section of this report. 11-01-2008 1600 hrs, I reviewed an interview that Det. Galvan had conducted on one of the suspects in this case. On 10-21-2008 at 1645 hrs, Det. Galvan interviewed the suspect Norberto Daniel Arquieta about his involvement in this home invasion robbery. Arquieta was the suspect who had been tasered at the front of the house by Officer Steepleton. Arquieta was not present at the rear of the residence and did not see Officers Hutchinson or Bucklin shoot the other two suspects. The following is a summary of Det. Galvan's, interview with Arquieta. The entire interview transcript can be viewed in the criminal investigation binder. Arquieta had been Mrandized by Det. Galvan and agreed to talk about this incident. Arquieta made some inconsistent statements about his involvement in this incident. He did however admit that he, Flores and Goucher had entered the victims condo and stole his money and car keys. Arquieta admitted that either Goucher or Flores had a gun while inside of the victim's condo, and that one of them had armed himself with a hammer. This hammer, according to Arquieta was found inside of the victim's condo in one of his kitchen drawers. Although Arquieta did not see any of Officer Hutchinson's or Officer Bucklin's actions, he confirms the suspicion that these officers were watching a home invasion robbery. PSPD-005070 IN 14-10-2008 2000 hrs, I reviewed the use of the Taser by Officer Steepleton. This use of force occurred on the front porch of the residence at Tiffany Cir. S. The following supplemental report was prepared by Officer Steepleton in regards to his use of force. While making our way to the second residence, Officer Larson radioed that the suspects were inside M Tiffany Circle South, Officer Jaeger and I met Officer Larson, Officer Flinn, Officer Bridgewaters and Officer Grissom near the garage door at the residence. After several seconds I heard a male's voice near the front door say, "Come on, let's go. Officer Larson, with his K-9 stepped away from the garage door towards the walkway to the front of the residence. I was standing to the side Officer Larson and saw a Hispanic male, later identified as Daniel ARQUIETA dressed in black holding something in his right hand. ARQUIETA was standing on the walkway to the front door. When ARQUIETA saw officer Larson and me, he immediately threw an unknown object into the bushes to his right. The area on the walkway was moderately lit by lights on the front and inside the residence. Officer Larson and I quickly ordered ARQUIETA to, "Put your hands up and get on the ground. " ARQUIETA put his hands up at shoulder level. I ordered ARQUIETA loudly to, "Get on the ground. " ARQUIETA did not comply. I verbally ordered ARQUIETA three more times to, "Get on the ground. " ARQUIETA did not comply and began looking around. Thinking ARQUIETA was looking for an avenue of escape, I discharged my department issued X26 Taser at his chest. I was standing approximately 10 feet away, from ARQUIETA when I discharged the X26 Taser. The two darts struck ARQ UIETA in the front of black sweatshirt. The force of the electrical shock caused ARQ UIETA to stiffen and fall to the ground. The X26 Taser was discharged with, the 5 second burst only once, without any additional electric shocks. As Officer Grissom approached and handcuffed ARQUIETA, the sounds of several shots were heard to the south behind the residence. Officer Grissom quickly moved ARQ UIETA from the walkway to the grass area near the drive wayfor his safety. PSPD-005071 M At PSPD, ARQUIETA was examined by Denise Denham from American Forensic Nurses inside the PSPD Jail. ARQUIETA did not sustain any visible injuries or puncture wounds from the two darts. I took several digital photos of ARQUIETA inside the PSPD ..Tail. I booked the spent X26 Laser cartridge and digital photos into evidence. I also reviewed a supplemental report written by Officer Larson who was, a witness to Officer Steepleton's use of the Taser on the suspect Arquieta. The following excerpt from Officer Larson's supplemental report details his observations of Officer Steepleton's use of force. When ARQUIETA came within 20feet, Iran out from behind the parked car and yelled, "Police! Put your hands up! Get on the ground!" A's I did this, I aimed my handgun at him with my right hand and held Jake by his leash with my left hand. ARQUIETA turned slightly to his right, then, stop crud put his hands above his head. As he did so, I saw a dark object sail out of his right hand toward the bushes next to the garage. I quickly walked away from the garage toward the west side of the residence in order to block the suspect's avenue of escape as well as avoid being a target of the suspects still inside. As I did so, I saw the two suspects still inside looking at me through the kitchen window. I saw the two suspects turn and run toward the rear glass slider. Since I had my handgun in one hand and Jake's leash in the other, I was unable to key the microphone on my radio and inform the officers that the suspects were running toward the back. I began to yell, "Out the back! They're going out the back!" as loud as I could in hopes that Officers Hutchinson and Bucklin could hear me and be ready. At the same time this was occurring, we held ARQUIETA at gunpoint in the front yard. ARQUIETA stood with his hands up, but when ordered to lie on the ground, he did not comply and hesitated, I decided not to send K-9 Jake to apprehend ARQUIETA because I thought that the apprehension would take too long and put Officers in front of the residence without cover for an extended period of time, Officer Steepleton deployed his terser and quickly incapacitated ARQUIETA. ARQUIETA fell to the ground next to the bushes. Officer Grissom went to ARQUIETA and began handcuffing him. PSPD-005072 15 I also reviewed a supplemental report written by Officer Bridgewater who was a witness to Officer Steepleton's use of the Taser on the suspect Arquieta. The following excerpt foam Officer Bridgewater's supplemental report details her observations of Officer Steepleton's use of force. I saw that the backpatio door was open and heard several subjects yelling inside. I then saw three suspects inside yelling at the victim (_ and one of them was walking towards the front door. Ofe. Larson and I ran around to the front of the condo to set up a perimeter. While Ofe. Bucklin and Ofc, Hutch stayed in the back of the condo. "ile running by the open sliding glass, door to set up out front Iglanced in the window and saw two of the suspects one with a long black object in his hand and another suspect with a black hand gun in his hand I did not see their faces because they were moving around to much and I was also quickly moving to the, front of the condo. Once out front Ipulled out my hand gun, Ofe. Larson had the K-9 and Oft.. Steepleton had his Taser ready. A second later suspect Daniel Arquieta came out from the house. He hopped over the brick wall and started to walk down the walkway. I then yelled Police and pointed my handgun at Arquieta and told him to put his hand in the air. As his hand went up in the air he turned to his right and threw a dark object in the bushes, but I could not see what the object was. We told Arquieta, to get on the ground and onto his stomach several times and he would not comply. Ofe. Steepleton then TaseredArquieta and he fell to the ground. "ile Qfc Grissom was hand cuffing Arquieta I heard what appeared to be several gun shots frown the back of the condo. Qfc. Hutchinson then put out shots fired, two suspects down, and start medical. The suspect Arqiueta came out of the residence and the officers knew that one of these suspects was armed with a handgun. Arquieta threw an object that was unknown to them, but still within reach. He refused to comply with their orders and was diverting the attention of the officers from the other two suspects who Officer Larson said were watching him from inside the residence. Officer Larson considered the option of his police K-9 which would have been appropriate, but for tactical reasons decided not to deploy his dog. Officer Steepleton deployed his Taser which subdued the suspect and allowed them to focus on the remaining suspects,. PSPD-005073 UM Based on the facts contained within Officer Steepleton's report, as well as supplemental reports from Officers Bridgewater and Larson, it appears that Officer Steepleton deployed his Taser within the guidelines of state law and department policy 11-11-2008 1715 hrs, I received a copy of an interview that Detective Galvan had conducted on the suspect Donnie Goucher in regards to his involvement in this incident. Detective Galvan's entire supplemental report can be found in the criminal investigation binder. The following excerpt from Detective Galvan's interview with Donnie Goucher details his involvement in this shooting incident. CST Johnson and I entered Goucher's room at approx. 1055 hours. Upon entering, I introduced myself to Mr. Goucher who was the sole occupant inside the room. Goucher was awake and oriented to his surroundings. Prior to discussing the investigation, I advised Goucher that he was not under arrest which he verbally acknowledged he understood. Further, I inquired if he was willing to speak with me regarding the circumstances involving the shooting which resulted in him being hospitalized Goucher stated he Was willing to talk to me regarding this incident. The following is a summary ofiny interview with Goucher which was visually and audibly recorded via camcorder by Johnson. I asked Goucher ifhe knew why he had been shot. In response, Goucher stated, "I don't know why they shot me. I didn't have a gun or nothin ' " Further, he said he didn't remember the events of the evening. I advised Mr. Goucher that I had spoken to both Cesar and Daniel whom informed me they were with Goucher the previous evening. Goucher confirmed he was with. Cesar and Daniel acknowledging they were friends ofhis. Goucher then recalled he was hanging out with Daniel and Cesarat Cesar's apartment in Palm Springs. He stated Cesar's brother, was also at the location. While at the apartment, Goucher admitted to drinking a beer. I inquired ifhe took any illegal drugs, to which he atfirst replied, 'No, " then, recanted, stating that he took one Zanax pill. Later that evening, he stated he and his friends went to 'MIS" house. Goucher said lived in the same apartment complex as Cesar however he was unable to provide me his apartment number. Goucher stated he heard that sometime during PSPD-005074 IV the evening he and friends walked back to M's house. He stated that on the way there, they saw some cops and started running at which point the cops started firing at him. Goucher stated he didn't remember anything else. I informed Goucher that both Cesar and Daniel had spoken to the police and acknowledged they had entered someone house whom they didn't know and robbed him after leaving the apartment complex. Goucher stated he didn't remember doing this. Mr. Goucher then exclaimed that he 'just got caught up on some stuff ' and had been in trouble recently. I asked him to elaborate and he stated that he got arrested for robbery "and other stuff 'in Palm Desert about a month ago. Since then, he has been trying to "lay low, doing what he can to stay out of trouble. I confronted Goucher with Cesar and Daniel's acknowledgment that the three had walked into someone's house, Goucher stated he didn't recall. I asked Goucher if herecalled having a BB gun, to which he replied, "No. " I asked Goucher if he ever possessed a BB gun, to which he replied, "A long time ago. " Goucher stated he been caught a BB gun when he got in arrested for the robbery in Palm Desert. I asked him to describe this BB gun and he stated the gun looked like a real gun and was black in color. I asked him if he placed tape on this BB gun and he replied, "This one looked real. You didn't have to put tape on it. " I asked Goucher if he had purchased another BB gun since the previous one had been recovered when he was arrested. Goucher denied purchasing nor possessing another BB gun since his previous arrest. Goucher also stated he did not recall seeing anyone in possession of BB gun during the evening in question. I again asked Goucher ifhe remembered going into someone's house illegally and he did not recall. I told Goucher I was advised he possessed a BB gun when he entered the victim's house however he stated he didn't remember having a gun in his hand. Upon being presented with additional facts pertaining to the investigation, Goucher stated he didn't recall demanding money from anyone, he didn't know what his friends were doing during the evening in question, he didn't remember anyone having a hammer, and didn't know why the police shot him. Further, he denied robbing anyone. Goueher stated that the Zanax he took during the evening in question made him 'forget stuff. " I asked Goucher if he thought the police would shoot him PSPD-005075 RN for no reason and he replied, V wouldn't think so. I guess there was a reason. if Goucher stated he has not talked to anyone regarding this matter. I asked Mr. Goucher if he had any questions for me and he replied, "No, " but then asked ifl thought he might be in, trouble. Mr. Goucher asked me to elaborate what happened during the night in question. 1presented him a brief synopsis of the events. During this time, he asked me ifsomeone had commented that a person had been beaten up with a hammer andlor said he was there. I did not provide with him with specific details at this time. My interview with Mr. Goucher was concluded shortly thereafter. 11-18-2008 1900 hrs, I reviewed a summary of an interview that Detective Kovaleff had conducted on the suspect Cesar Flores. The following excerpt from Detective Kovaleff s supplemental report details the information he obtained from this interview. He was wearing black and tan pants, a white shirt, and white shoes. His clothes were baggy and his shirt was not tucked in. He did not know whose house that they were in. I asked him, "When you guys came out of that house, what did the police officers say? " He replied, "All he said was don't move, but I think because Ifelt I dropped something and he probably thought I was going to get the gun. " He also said "He told me not to move and all I did was turn around and I heard three gunshots, " J attempted to clarify what he had in his hand and he denied having anything in his hand. He related that he ran after he heard "don't move "He later said he heard "Palm Springs Police freeze. " He did not know that they were police officers, but did see a uniform. He did not believe that they had an reason to shoot him. Arquieta probably had the hammer during the incident. Goucher had the handgun during the incident. He saw Voucher put the gun to the old man's head. It was their (Goucher and Arquieta's) idea to go in, They did not think anybody was home. Knowing that the victim's cell phone and glasses were found next to his clothes, I asked him, "Did you have the phone? " He said, "No, you guys probablyfound that stuff on me. " He denied owning a cell phone. He PSPD-005076 E didn't know they were going to do a "house invasion. " There are several significant pieces of information that were obtained in this interview. Flores confirins that he and the other suspects were committing a home invasion robbery. He confirms that Arquieta was armed with the hammer, and that Goucher was aimed with the handgun during the colm-nission of this crime. He also said that Goucher had put the gun to the "old man's head" (Viet - Flores said at different times during this interview that he hears "Palm Springs Police freeze". He said that he saw a uniform, but did not know they were police officers when speaking of the time period when he and Goucher exited the condo onto the back patio. Flores denies having anything in his•- hand, but acknowledges that he was in possession of the victim's glasses and cell phone. He acknowledges that he hears the officers tell him not to move, and admits to turning and running on this command. Flores makes the statement, "All he said was don't move, but I think because Ifelt I dropped something and he probably thought I was going to get the gun. " This confirms both Officer Hutchinson's and Bucklin's statements that Flores had objects in his hands and was making furtive movements when ordered to drop the items. It also confirms their fears that Flores was attempting to run back into the condo. This also sounds like an acknowledgement by Flores that he was making movements that would make the officers believe he was going to get a gun or back inside to take a hostage. 10-21-2008 0500 hrs, I was called at my home by Lieutenant Booth. Lt. Booth infon-ned me that an in -progress home invasion robbery call had resulted in an officer involved shooting. He requested that as part of the department's Critical Incident Investigation Team (CUT) that I respond to the station to assist in the internal investigation process. I arrived at the station at 0530 hours, and then responded to Desert Regional Medical Center (DRMC). I arrived at DRMC at 0551 hours. Upon arrival I PSPD-005077 zo saw officers Jaeger and Grissom in the trauma emergency treatment room with two suspects later identified as Donny Goucher, and Cesar Flores. Both suspects were receiving emergency room medical care by DRMC staff due to their gunshot wounds (GSW). Dr. Hoffman was the physician. Sergeant Fallon was also at DRMC. Jaeger, Grisson, and Fallon were in full police uniform. As Jaeger and Grissom were busy, I asked PSPD dispatch to respond an officer to take photographs of the suspect's wounds. At about 0634 hours, Officer Mike Donovan arrived and took several photographs of both suspects. In observing the GSWs to both suspects, I noted the following: GOUCHER Suspect Goucher had what appeared to be a GSW to his right upper chest area just left and above of his right nipple: Suspect Goucher had what appeared to be a GSW to his upper rear back area just below his collar line: PSPD-005078 21 Goucher had what appeared to a GSW wound on the right side of his neck; PSPD-005079 22 Goucher had an entry and exit through and through GSW on his left hand between his thumb and index finger and what appears to be another through and through entry and exit GSW across the front of his lower abdomen. It is Sgt. Beard's and my opinion that these wounds all appear to be consistent with being caused by a single projectile as they all easily lined up: GSW Through & Through in Hand and Abdomen FIT Tattoo PSPD-005080 23 In observing suspect Goucher, I also noted that he had a tattoo in large block lettering of "F I T" on his abdomen and lower left hip area. Goucher's injuries were consistent with being caused by 3-4 projectiles being fired at him. FLORES Suspect Flores had what appeared to be a through and through GSW to his right outer chest area that is just below and right of his right nipple and also on the lower portion of his right back near his waistline: PSPD-005081 24 Flores' injuries were consistent with being caused by one projectile impacting him. 10-21-2008 0638 hrs, phlebotomist Denise Denham arrived and took blood samples from both suspects Goucher and Flores. 10-21-2008 0640 hrs, Lt. Booth arrived at DRMC and briefed me on the circumstances of the event. 10-21-2008 0650 hrs, Detective Kovaleff arrived at DRMC as part of the criminal investigation team. 10-21-2008 0700 hrs, Sgt. Beard arrived at DRMC. 10-21-2008 0713 hrs, Sgt. Beard and I cleared DRMC. 10-21-2008 0741 hrs, Sgt. Beard and I returned to the crime scene and he walked me through the three locations were these crimes had occurred. I was assigned the task of documenting the crime scene for the internal investigation. All three crime scenes are located in the Dose Garden Condominium complex on Tiffany Circle South. There is a green belt that traverses the PSPD-005082 25 entire south side of the complex. There is a flood control channel that traverses the entire south side of the complex. This entire complex is located south of the main cross streets of Hermosa and Baristo Road and is generally centrally located in the City of Palm Springs, County of Riverside. Scene #1 1 Tiffany Circle South This location is a single story town home which is located on the southeast corner of Hermosa and Tiffany Circle South. At this location, wand were sleeping inside their home at the time that the suspects attempted to break into their home. The suspects removed the exterior screen from the kitchen window on the west side of the home. They were then confronted by who had walked into the kitchen to investigate the noise. One suspect pointed a gun at The suspects then tried unsuccessfully to force open the front door by kicking it several times and then fled. called 911 and PSPD officers began to respond to this location. I observed that there were at least six or more right foot dirty smudge marks on the lower portion of the front door which indicated to me that the suspect(s) had tried to forcibly kick open the front door. I also noted that there were herring bone style shoe impressions in the dirt outside of POE # 1. 4 Attempted points of POE #1 - entiy Screen PSPD-005083 2( A POE #2 From Door foot marks Scene #2 — = Tiffany Circle South This location is a two-story town home which is located several homes west of � Tiffany Circle South. At this location and her roommate's three children were upstairs. _heard the suspects speaking Spanish and heard them banging on her front door. She called 911 and requested police assistance as she believed the suspects may have gained access to the lower level of her home. No access was made and the suspects fled prior to police arrival. Scene #3 — Tiffany Circle South Shooting location — Front north side of M Tiffany Circle South This location is a one-story town home which is located several homes west ofMTiffany Circle South. It is just south of the intersection of Tiffany Circle South and Tiffany Circle West. The front of the home has an PSPD-005084 27 approximate four foot high enclosed courtyard that is surrounded by a block wall and which has a hinged metal swinging access gate. The front door has a non -security type screen door and is located directly south of the access gate opening. 5 _ '!A Y1 Front Door PSPD-005085 ?g I observed a black handled chrome colored metal hammer, a set of keys, and a dark colored sock that were in view near the hedges outside of the courtyard access gate. This is where suspect Daniel Arquieta was taken into custody. Refer to the following photos: PSPD-005086 29 Shooting location — Rear south side patio of �iffany Circle South To the rear south side of the home there is a concrete patio that is covered in Saltillo tiles. There is an exterior sliding glass door which leads from the interior living room to the rear patio. There is a covered metal BBQ just east of the patio door. There is a round glass top patio table with two vinyl backed chairs, two vinyl backed chaise lounge chairs, and two additional vinyl backed chairs that were placed just east and off of the concrete patio at the time of this incident. There were numerous other evidence items on the patio. Refer to the following crime scene photos and diagrammed sketch of this location: Overhead view of rear patio facing southeast PSPD-005087 30 Suspect BB gun pistol wrapped in black electrical tape Rear patio view facing northwest Rear patio view facing north Suspect S'1 Flores" Clothing Victim's cellphone dropped by suspect Flores Suspect Goucher's Clothing PSPD-005088 31 M�" View looking outward & southbound from victim 's sliding glass door. Edge of patio table facing westerly PSPD-005089 32 M 27 24 Projectile impact site of one .45cal hollow point most likely from Officer Bucklin's weapon. PSPD-005090 3 It is suspected that the pair of the victim's eyeglasses and cell phone were the objects that Officers Hutchinson and Bucklin saw in suspect Flores' hands. It should be noted that aside from Flores clothing which was cut off by fire department personnel, there are no other objects in that general area. The DOJ (DNA) report which could prove that Flores handled these items is pending. However, it is reasonable to believe that these items were the one's seen by both officers.

PSPD-005094 37 10-21-2008 1021 hrs, Sergeant Beard and I returned to the station. 10-21-2008 0835 hrs, I observed CSO Fitzsimmons and Detective Long talcx photographs of Officer Hutchinson in his full police uniform. I saw CSO Fitzsimmons photograph and take as evidence Officer Hutchinson's weapon (Sig Sauer P220.45cal, Serial #: �� and FMJ ball ammunition. I noted that the weapon appeared to be unmodified (pending a subsequent report from DOJ and PSPD Range master Menley) and it had a frame mounted flashlight.

He also possessed two spare magazines which contained seven live cartridges in each magazine. There was Ranger ammunition in both of the spare magazines. He had a Safari land type molded retention holster that complied with department regulations.

PSPD-005102 45 Officer Bucklin Interview: Criminal Investigators On 10-21-2008, at 1024 lirs, Officer Bucklin gave a voluntary statement to the criminal investigators in this case. Prior to this interview, Officer Bucklin was advised that he was considered a victim in this criminal investigation and was not advised of his Miranda rights. I witnessed this voluntary statement given by OfFicer. Bucklin via the video feed in the PSPD video evidence room. A full transcript of this interview can found in the criminal investigation binder. The following is a summary of this interview. During this interview, Officer Bucklin told PSPD investigators that on the night of 10-21-2008, he was working graveyard patrol which runs from 2100-0700hrs. Officer Bucklin said that he was wearing a full PSPD duty uniform and was driving a marked PSPD patrol car. Officer Bucklin said that this night's shift was his first work day for the week. He also said that he had taken several naps prior to his shift and "felt fine" when he came to work, Officer Bucklin said that he had not taken any medications recently in spite of having a cold earlier in the week. Officer Bucklin said that this illness did not affect any of his decisions during this incident. Officer Bucklin said that he had been dispatched to MTiffany Cr. S in reference to a reported burglary in progress at that location. He said that he had waited for the arrival of a K-9 officer before they proceeded to check the area. He said that once the K-9 officer arrived, they searched the area including the interior of the residence and found that all of the suspects had fled. Officer Bucklin said that at some point, he was advised that another caller was calling from the dock of Tiffany Cr. S. This caller advised that someone was knocking on her door. Officer Bucklin said that after this second call, he thought that maybe these could be the same people from the previous crime. He said that he ran down Tiffany Cr. S. with other officers to check this second address. He said that by the time officers got to this location, the suspects again had already fled. Officer Bucklin said that he had formed the opinion that these suspects were probably the same ones from their initial call and felt that they were probably working their way west along Tiffany Cr. S. Officer Bucklin said PSPD-005103 M that he and Officer Hutchinson decided to walk along the south side of this row of houses between the structures and the storm channel. He said that he felt they were in fairly fresh pursuit of these suspects as they made their way westbound. Officer Bucklin said that they happened to notice a sliding glass door open on one of the units with the privacy blinds open giving them visual access to its interior. He said that he could hear voices coming from inside of this unit, which he felt was suspicious at this of day between 0400- 0430 hrs. Officer Bucklin said that he and Officer Hutchinson had positioned themselves on the backyard patio near the barbeque area and were able to see into the interior of this condo, He said that he was able to see into the kitchen area and saw what appeared to be a Hispanic male holding a black handgun. He said that this Hispanic male was pointing the gun in an easterly direction and could hear what sounded like people yelling back and forth. Officer Bucklin said that he heard someone saying "Okay., Okay" which he thought might be a victim being ordered around. Officer Bucklin said that the interior of the unit was well lit, and that he was able to clearly see what was going on inside. Officer Bucklin said that at this time, it was obvious to him that a home invasion robbery was taking place. Officer Bucklin said that Officer Hutchinson utebinson had updated the other police officers on scene with what they could see via the rear slider. He said that at one point, he hears what he believes are officers in the front of the residence yelling orders, but is unsure what is being said because they are on opposite sides of the residence. Officer Bucklin said, moments later, two subjects came running out of the rear slider onto the patio where Officer Hutchinson and himself had positioned themselves. Officer Bucklin said that the first suspect who exited, was the same one he had seen inside the residence holding the black handgun. Officer Bucklin said that be remembers yelling something similar to "Police or Police Officer —freeze" at the suspects as they exit the residence. Officer Bucklin said that as he yells at the suspects, the first suspect who is holding a gun in his right hand turns toward he and Officer Hutchinson and that the gun in the suspects hand is moving toward being pointed in their direction. Officer Bucklin makes a movement with his hand to show how the suspect held the gun somewhere at waist level. Officer Bucklin said that based on the suspects actions, he was afraid that the suspect was going to shoot he and Officer Hutchinson. Officer Bucklin said that he then hears Officer PSPD-005104 47 Hutchinson fire as be fires his own gun at this suspect. Officer Bucklin estimated that he was approx 8'- 10' away from this suspect when he shot at him. He said that he fired 1-2 shots at the first suspect. Officer Bucklin said that he saw this first suspect fall to the ground following the shots. He said that he was unable to tell where this suspect's gun had gone after he fell to the ground. He said that when this suspect fell, he was no longer an immediate threat and ceased firing at him. Officer Bucklin said that after this first suspect fell to the ground, he turned his focus toward the second suspect who was approx 6'-8' behind the first suspect closer to the sliding glass door that they exited from. Officer Bucklin said that this suspect was facing he and Officer Hutchinson slightly bent over. He said that this suspect had an object in his right hand that he believed it was a gun, and that he was coming up with it. Officer Bucklin said that he fired one round at this second suspect when he feared that he may shoot at he and Officer Hutchinson. Officer Bucklin said that he did not fire any additional rounds at this suspect because he fell and was no longer a threat. Officer Bucklin said that after both suspects fell to the ground, he advised PSPD dispatch that shots had been fired and requested medical aid. Officer Bucklin said that he did not handcuff either of the suspects and stood by until Sgt. Abshire came to the rear of the residence and contacted him. Officer Buckliri said that he gave a public safety statement to Sgt. Abshire.. Officer Bucklin said that he told Sgt. Abshire that he fired a total of 2-3 rounds and in what direction. (See, Sgt. Abshire's supplemental report for further on this public safety statement). Officer Bucklin said that the ammunition he fired during this incident was all department issued. He said that he did not use any other force options or hands on techniques during this incident, PSPD-005105 M On 10-22-2008, an administrative interview was scheduled with Officer Bucklin and his attorney Robert Krause. This interview had taken place in the patrol Sergeants office and started at 1621 hrs. This interview was tape recorded using an audio cassette recorder. Present during this interview was Sgt. Matt Beard, Sgt. Abe Tokier, Officer Gerald Bucklin and Attorney Robert Krause. Officer Bucklin was read his Miranda Rights from a pre-printed Miranda form. Officer Bucklin acknowledged that he understood all of his rights and singed the forin. Officer Bucklin invoked his Miranda rights when asked if he wanted to talk about this incident. I then read Officer Bucklin a Lybarger advisement from a pre-printed form. As I read Officer Bucklin this advisement, Attorney Robert Krause waived any further reading of the advisement and informed Officer Bucklin that he was being ordered to give a statement. Officer Bucklin then signed and dated the Lybarger form acImowledging that he understood his rights. Refer to attachment section for both Miranda and Lybarger advisement forms. Attachment item#8 I then reiterated to Officer Bucklin that I was now ordering him to give a statement in this administrative interview. The following is a summary of this administrative interview given by Officer Bucklin. Officer Bucklin said that on the date of this incident (10-21-2008), he was originally sent to = Tiffany Cr. S. for a report of a home invasion robbery where one of the suspects pointed a gun at the reporting party (�. Officer Bucklin said that after the reporting party had been interviewed, he learned that there were three suspects, one of which was armed with a handgun. He said that it was confirmed in his mind that an attempted home invasion robbery had taken place. Officer Bucklin said that while he was at =Tiffany Cr. S., he was advised that another reporting party (� was reporting that someone was trying to get in through her front door ( Tiffany Cr. S). Officer Bucklin said that he did not get any further information from this, reporting party. PSPD-005106 49 Officer Bucklin said that at this point in this incident, he had formed the opinion that these suspects were armed and looking to commit another home invasion robbery. Officer Bucklin said that he had gone over to the south side of this row of houses and had been walking west searching for these suspects. He said that his attention was brought to one of the condos when he noticed that the interior was lit up, the rear sliding glass door was standing open and heard voices coming from inside. Officer Bucklin said that he was not aware of the address at this condo, but it was later determined to be M Tiffany Cr. S. Officer Bucklin said that he and, Officer Hutchinson had positioned themselves on the east side of the patio in the area of the barbeque. He said that they moved in and out of this area to afford themselves a better view into the interior of the condo. Officer Bucklin said that the interior had several lights on, and ambient lighting from inside made the patio area fairly well lit. Officer Bucklin said that from his vantage point which was behind Officer Hutchinson, he was able to see a suspect holding a black handgun. He said that this suspect with the handgun was the only person he was able to see. Although he only saw this aimed suspect, he could tell from the voices inside that there were several people inside this condo. He said that he could hear loud talking and someone who was not so loud saying "OK—OK7. Officer Bucklin said that based on these observations, he formed the opinion that he was witnessing a home invasion robbery and anticipated a confrontation with these armed and dangerous suspects. At this point in this interview, we were getting into the most significant portion of the incident. For the purposes of this interview, 1 told Officer Bucklin that we would designate the two suspects who exited the rear of the residence as suspects #1 and #2. Although there were a total of three suspects involved in this incident, We agreed to designate the first suspect who exited the rear sliding glass door as suspect #I ( later identified as Goucher) and the second suspect who exited the rear sliding glass door as suspect #2 (later identified as Flores). I designated these suspects in this way because Officer Bucklin was not aware of their names and to avoid confusion as to which person I would be referring to during the interview. PSPD-005107 W Officer Bucklin said that when the suspects initially ran out of the rear sliding glass door, he did not see the gun in either of the suspect's hands. It was not until suspect 41 made it further out onto the patio that Officer Bucklin was able to see a gun in his hand. At this point in the incident it was determined that both Officers Bucklin and Hutchinson fired their weapons at suspect # 1. Officer Bucklin had explained why he fired his weapon at suspect #I in detail to criminal investigators during his voluntary interview. I felt that Officer Bucklin adequately explained his actions, in regard to suspect 41 and did not require any further justification. Officer Bucklin said that he thought that suspect #I was the same suspect that he had originally seen inside of the condo with the gun, but he could not be sure. I then told Officer Bucklin that I wanted to focus this portion of the interview on the actions of suspect #2,. Officer Bucklin said that he initially noticed suspect 42 in his peripheral vision as he is watching suspect #1 run across the patio. He said that he believed suspect #2 was positioned in between the glass patio table and privacy wall when he first came into his view. Officer Bucklin said that when he initially saw suspect #I exit the rear sliding glass door, he yelled "Police —police officer —freeze". He said that both suspects # I and 92 where in such close proximity to each other that suspect #2 could not help but to hear this identification. Officer Bucklin said that as he puts his focus on suspect #2, he iiTu-nediately sees his right hand rapidly coming up with an object in it that he believes is a weapon. Officer Bucklin said that at the time be fired shots at suspect 42, his perception was that suspect #2 had a gun in his hand. Officer Bucklin said that the suspect's actions caused him to fear or his own life as well as Officer Rutchinson's. He said that suspect 42 was facing both he and Officer Hutchinson at this time. Officer Bucklin said that his mindset at the time of this incident was that all of the suspects were potentially armed with guns. He based this opinion on his years of experience of past robbery type crimes where suspects were an -tied with multiple weapons. I questioned Officer Bucklin about the possibility of other force options for deployment on suspect #2. Officer Bucklin said that in his opinion, no other options were appropriate at that time. He based this opinion on his perception that suspect 42 was armed with a gun and was about to shoot at he and Officer Hutchinson. PSPD-005108 51 Officer Bucklin said that following the shooting, he advised dispatch that shots had been fired and made an immediate request for medical aid. This interview was ended at 1642 hrs. OUT BIAT Criminal Investigators On 10-21-2008, at 1024 hrs, Officer Hutchinson gave a voluntary statement to the criminal investigators in this case. Prior to this interview, Officer Hutchinson was advised that he was considered a victim in this criminal investigation and was not advised of his Miranda rights. I witnessed this voluntary statement given by Officer Hutchinson via the video feed in the PSPD video evidence room. A full transcript of this interview can found in the criminal investigation binder. Officer Hutchinson gave PSPD investigators some foundation, information about himself. Officer Hutchinson said that on the night of this incident, he had been working graveyard patrol. He said that he was wearing a full PSPD duty uniform and driving a marked PSPD police car. Tonight's shift was his first day of work for the week. He said that he had slept 12 hours the night before and felt fine prior to his shift. He said that he had not used any medications, nor did he have any health issues recently. Officer Hutchinson said that he had been dispatched to a call of a home invasion or burglary on Tiffany Cir. He said that it was initially unclear if the suspects had made entry or not, but it had been broadcast that a suspect was armed with a handgun. Officer Hutchinson said that he could not remember the street numbers on Tiffany Cir, but remembered that he was probably second or third on scene. Officer Hutchinson said that this initial reporting party was interviewed and learned that two to three suspects had attempted to break into this residence. The reporting party said that when he confronted the suspects, one of them pointed a handgun at him and thought that he may have fired a round at him. He said at one point, the suspects attempted to kick in his front door before fleeing the area toward the street. This reporting party described the suspects as possibly Hispanic males wearing dark clothing. PSPD-005109 WN Officer Hutchinson said that while he was at this first residence, he learned of a second caller in the 1100 block of Tiffany Cr. S. He said that he learned that this reporting party said that she heard Hispanic voices outside and loud knocking on her door. This reporting party was unable to tell how many suspects were outside and was unable to understand what they were saying. Officer Hutchinson said that he, Officer Bucklin and two or three other officers went over to the south side of this row of structures between them and the wash. He said that he felt that these suspects were working their way west. He said that he walked approx three or four condos west of the suspects last known location (M Tiffany Cr. S.) and noticed that a sliding glass door was standing open. Officer Hutchinson said that they approach this sliding glass door and noticed that the blinds were open and pushed to the side. He said that the interior was lit up and that they had a clear unobstructed view of the condo's interior. He described the lighting conditions on the patio as kind of dark, but the interior was well lit. Officer Hutchinson said that he could hear voices coming from inside the condo and peeked around the comer to get a better look.It was now that Officer Hutchinson said that he could see several males running around the interior of the condo. One of these males was wearing a black hooded sweatshirt with the hood over his head. He said that he was then able to hear people saying "give me your keys —where are your fucking keys". Officer Hutchinson said that at this point, he is able to see one of the suspects standing in the kitchen with a gun in his hand. He said that he could not see if this suspect was pointing the gun at anyone, but it was pointed in an easterly direction. Officer Hutchinson said that he then heard another voice say "Don't do that --take what you need and go". Officer Hutchinson said that he then formed the opinion that he was observing a home invasion robbery. Officer Hutchinson said that he informed all of the other officers with him on the south side of the residence what he had observed. He said that all of the other officers, except.Officer Bucklin left the south side at that point and went to other locations around the residence. Officer Hutchinson said that several minutes passed before he heard officers yelling commands at someone at the front of the condo, He said that he hears "police get down" repeatedly then hears radio traffic that two suspects have run back into the house. Officer Hutchinson said that he turned to PS P D-0051 10 W Officer Bucklin and told hiin that it sounded as if the suspects were headed back toward them. Officer Hutchinson said that he and Officer Bucklin had taken some cover behind a wall on the southeast side of the patio in anticipation of the suspects coming out of the residence. He said that he then saw a suspect come running out of the rear sliding glass door of the condo. He said that he could see that this suspect has a gun in what he recalls was his right hand. He said that the suspect was holding the gun up as he ran across the patio. Officer Hutchinson said that he and Officer Bucklin both began yelling "police, drop the gun" repeatedly at this suspect. Officer Hutchinson said that the suspect traveled about 10' outside of the rear sliding glass door, at which point, the suspect turned his body and began to raise the gun in their direction. Officer Hutchinson said that he heard a gunshot go off and did not know if it was Officer Bucklin who had fired this shot. He said that he then began to fire what he believed to be 2-3 gunshots at this suspect. Officer Hutchinson said that this suspect fell to the ground and he saw the gun fall out of his hand. He said that after this suspect fell to the ground, he did not fire any additional shots as he felt he was no longer an immediate threat. Officer Hutchinson said that as the first suspect fell to the ground, he immediately noticed another suspect behind the first suspect also on the patio. Officer Hutchinson said that he saw a dark object in this suspects hand and gives him repeated orders to "drop it". Officer Hutchinson said that this suspect then puts his hands in his waistband and he is not sure if this suspect is trying to load a weapon or what he is trying to do. Officer Hutchinson said that he was not able to clearly see the suspect's waistband and believes that he has a weapon. Officer Hutchinson said that this suspects is also moving back towards the rear sliding glass door that they had used to exit the condo. He said he felt that this suspect was about to shoot at he and Officer Bucklin, or run back into the condo and take the victim as a hostage. Officer Hutchinson said that during this confrontation, he gave repeated orders to the suspect to "stop —drop it" which the suspect ignored. Officer Hutchinson said that because of these observations, he fired one to two shots at this suspect. He estimated that this suspect was approx five feet away from him when he fired. He said that he believes that his shots struck this suspect in his chest. Officer Hutchinson said that following the shots, the suspect dropped the objects in his hand and fell to the ground. Officer Hutchinson said that as the suspect lay on the ground, both of his hands were on top of his shirt. Officer Hutchinson said that he took cover PSPD-0051 11 54 and gave this suspect orders to keep his hands away from his waistband. Officer Hutchinson said that he could see both of the suspect hands and that he was no longer an immediate threat and no further shots were fired at that time. Officer Hutchinson said that while he covered this second suspect, Officer Bucklin had shifted his attention back toward the first suspect who had been shot. Officer Hutchinson said that after both of the suspects fell to the ground, they advised dispatch that shots had been fired and requested medical aid respond to the scene. Officer Hutchinson said that neither of the suspects had been handcuffed following this shooting. Officer Hutchinson said that he and Officer Bucklin remained with the suspect until Sgt. Abshire came to the rear of the house took them away from the scene. Officer Hutchinson said that Sgt. Abshire asked him for a public safety statement about this shooting incident. Officer Hutchinson said that he gave Sgt. Abshire a statement about how many rounds he fired and in which direction. He said that this statement to Sgt. Abshire was consistent with the information that he gave in this voluntary statement to criminal investigators. Officer Hutchinson said that he had ball ammunition loaded into the his weapon when he fired the shots in this magazine and chamber of i incident. He said that this ball ammunition was department issued to him during SWAT training that had occurred on 10-19-2008. Officer Hutchinson said that he had not changed the ball ammunition out of his gun following range training, Officer Hutchinson recalled the lighting on the patio to be dark, but not pitch black. He said although he did not use his flashlight, the suspects were very clear to him prior to and during the firing of his shots at them. PSPD-005112 55 Officer Hutchinson Administrative Interview On 10-22-2008, an administrative interview was scheduled with Officer Hutchinson and his attorney Robert Krause. This interview had taken place in the patrol Sergeants office and started at 1600hrs. This interview was tape recorded using an audio cassette recorder. Present during this interview was Sgt. Matt Beard, Sgt. Abe Tokier, Officer William Hutchinson and Attorney Robert Krause.. Officer Hutchinson was read his Miranda Rights from a pre-printed Miranda form. Officer Hutchinson acknowledged that he understood all of his rights and signed the form. Officer Hutchinson invoked his Miranda rights when asked if he wanted to talk about this incident. I then read Officer Hutchinson a Lybarger advisement from a pre-printed form. As I read Officer Hutchinson this advisement, Attorney Robert Krause waived any further reading of the advisement and informed Officer Hutchinson that he was being ordered to give a statement. Officer Hutchinson then singed and dated the Lybarger form acknowledging that he understood his rights. Refer to attachment section for both Miranda and Lybarger advisement forms. Attachment item#7 I then reiterated to Officer Hutchinson that I was now ordering him to give a statement in this administrative interview. The following is a summary of this interview. Officer Hutchinson said that on the night of this incident (10-21-2008) he had been dispatched to a possible residential burglary in progress at 1331 Tiffany Cr. S. Officer Hutchinson said that after officers arrived to this location and contact the reporting party, it appeared to be something more than an attempted burglary. Officer Hutchinson said that this first call was most likely an attempted home invasion robbery. He said that he learned from this reporting party (� that one of the suspects in this incident had pointed a gun at him (�. � also thought that this suspect may have fired a gunshot at him. Officer Hutchinson said that while investigating the incident at M Tiffany Cr. S., he learned of another call a couple of hundred yards west of this location. Officer Hutchinson said that he later learned from this reporting PSPD-005113 56 party that several Hispanic males had knocked on this reporting party's front door that caused her, to phone the police department. Officer Hutchinson said that because of this latest information, he suspected that these were possibly the saine suspects as the previous call ate Tiffany Cr. S. and they were working their way west. He also thought that they were looking to attempt another home invasion robbery. He said that his mindset at the time was that they were in hot pursuit of armed, dangerous and confrontational subjects. Officer Hutchinson said that he began working his way west along the south side of the structures which is also bordered by the storm channel further to the south. He said that approx 4-5 condo's west of the second caller M Tiffany Cr. S) he noticed an open sliding glass door with lights on and the blinds pushed to the side. Officer Hutchinson said that he moved closer to this slider to get a better view of the interior of the condo. Officer Hutchinson said that from this vantage point, he was able to see several males inside. One of these males was wearing a black hooded sweatshirt with the hood pulled over his head. Officer Hutchinson estimated that there were three suspects inside with what he believed to be a victim as well. He described this victim as a tall, thinner, white male adult. Officer Hutchinson said that he heard angry voices coming from inside, and also another voice which he said sounded scared. Officer Hutchinson felt that the scared voice was that of the victim. He said at this point he notices a suspect with a handgun pointing it in an easterly direction. He said that he could not see who or what the gun was pointing at. Officer Hutchinson said that he has now formed the opinion that he is witnessing a home invasion robbery. At this point in this interview, we were getting into the most significant portion of the incident. For the purposes of this interview, I told Officer Hutchinson that we would designate the two suspects who exited the rear of the residence as suspects # I and #2. Although there were a total of three suspects involved in this incident, We agreed to designate the first suspect who exited the rear sliding glass door as suspect #I ( later identified Goucher) and the second suspect who exited the rear sliding glass door as suspect 42 (later identified as Flores). I designated these suspects in this way because Officer Hutchinson was not aware of their names and to avoid confusion as to which person I PSPD-005114 57 would be referring to during the interview. Officer Hutchinson said that he had learned that at least one of the suspects had exited the front of the residence and was tasered by officers. He said that radio traffic was broadcast that the remaining suspects were running back into the condo. Officer Hutchinson said that he and Officer Bucklin had taken some cover on the southeast side of the patio in the area of the barbeque. He said that this area gave them some cover, but also► concealment while looking into the open sliding glass door. Officer Hutchinson said moments later, two suspects came running out of the rear sliding glass door onto the south side patio where he and Officer Bucklin had positioned themselves. He said that as the two suspects came onto the patio, he noticed that suspect #I had gun in his right hand. He said that suspect #1 traveled south across the patio making his way between the glass patio table and the west side privacy wall of the partially walled patio area. At this point in this incident, shots had been fired at this first suspect. I did not question Officer Hutchinson further about his decision to shoot this first suspect. During the interview that Officer Hutchinson gave to criminal investigators, he adequately explained his reasons for firing at this suspect which I did not feel needed to be re -explained. I now told Officer Hutchinson that I wanted to focus on the actions of the second suspect. Officer Hutchinson said that he first noticed suspect #2 within seconds of the last shots being fired at suspect 41. He said that his attention was immediately drawn to the sounds of suspect #2 running out of the rear sliding glass door. Officer Hutchinson estimated that both suspects had exited the rear sliding glass door within seconds of each other. Officer Hutchinson said that suspect #2 was in the area of the glass patio table when he directed his attention to him. He said that suspect #2 had a dark object in one of his hands that he was not able to immediately recognize, but he feared it was a handgun. Officer Hutchinson said that he ordered the suspect to drop the item several times. He said that the suspect was originally facing him then appeared to turn as if to run back into the condo. Officer Hutchinson said that as suspect #2 turns to his left, his hands went into his waistband area. Officer Hutchinson said that when the suspect had his hands in the area of his waistband, he appeared to be manipulating something. He said that he feared that the suspect was trying to load, reload or put a round in the chamber of a gun. Officer Hutchinson said that during PSPD-005115 58 this time, he had given the suspect several orders to "drop it" which the suspect ignored. Officer Hutchinson said that he could not allow the suspect to get back into the residence and harm the victim or take him hostage. He also said that he feared that the suspect might try and shoot back at he and Officer Bucklin. Officer Hutchinson said that because of these reasons, he immediately fired one to two gunshots at the second suspect. Officer Hutchinson said that following the gunshots, suspect 42 dropped the objects in his hand and fell to the ground. Officer Hutchinson reiterated that the objects in suspect #2's hands were dark and he was unable to make them out completely, but he definitely thought that suspect 42 had a handgun in one of his hands. Officer Hutchinson said that he was unable to identify suspect #1 or suspect #2 as the suspect he originally saw inside of the condo kitchen armed with the handgun. He said at the time of the shooting, he was unsure which suspect was the one inside with the gun. He also said that in his mind, based on his experience that multiple suspects are armed when committing these types of crimes. Officer Hutchinson said that he remembers medical aid being requested following the shots being fired, but cannot recall if it was he or Officer Bucklin that made the request. I questioned Officer Hutchinson about the viability of other force options for use on suspect 42. Officer Hutchinson said that in his opinion no other forms of force were appropriate at that time. He gave the reasoning that he was confronting someone who was potentially armed and could shoot at he and Officer Bucklm, or re-entering the condo and take a hostage. He added that this confrontation was happening very quickly and other force options could not have been deployed. T questioned Officer Hutchinson about full metal jacket (Ball ammunition) that was loaded into the magazine and barrel of his gun when inspected by criminal investigators. Officer Hutchinson said that he had recently attended SWAT training on Sunday 10-19-2008 where he loaded department issued training ammunition (Ball ammunition) into his magazine and gun. He said that he forgot to change out this training ammunition following the SWAT training day. PSPD-005116 59 This administrative interview was concluded at, 1613 hrs. I later reviewed the California Penal Code Sections W, 417.41 196, 197, 835a, and Section 405.00 of the Palm SpringsPolice Department Operations Manual. I also reviewed the Graham v. Connor case. California Penal Code Section 148 states.L Resisting, Delaying, or Obstructing Officer (a) (1) Every person who willfully resists, delays, or obstructs any public officer, peace officer, or an emergency medical technician, as defined in Division.2.5 (commencing with Section 1797) of the Health and Safety Code, in the discharge or attempt to discharge any duty of his or her office or employment, when no other punishment is prescribed, shall be punished by a fine not exceeding one thousand dollars ($ 1,000), or by imprisonment in a county jail not to exceed one year, or by both that fine and imprisonment.

Graham v. Connor states: The use of force is governed by an objective reasonableness standard. Objective reasonableness is determined from the perspective of a reasonable person on scene rather than with 20/20 vision of hindsight and must embody the allowance for the fact that police officers are often forced to make split- second judgments in circumstances that are often tense, uncertain, and rapidly evolving Graham v. Connor (1989) 490 US, 3 86. I rRywil 1 11 X I I Did Officer Hutchinson use reasonable force in effecting an arrest or stopping suspects Flores and Goucher's threat against him and Officer Bucklin.

In response to this portion of the investigation, we find that Officer Bucklin acted appropriately and did not violate any laws, policies, rules, or ordinances. Did Officer Hutchinson violate any Palm Springs Police Department policies during this event? In response to this portion of the investigation, we find that Officer Hutchinson acted appropriately in his decision to use force, but did violate section 500.08 of the Palm Springs Police Department manual. Officer Hutchinson admitted to shooting these suspects with training ammunition (FMJ- Ball ammunition) after failing to reload his handgun with authorized pistol ammunition. 500.08 of the Palm Springs Police department manual authorizes the following types of ammunition for duty use. 9mm Winchester Ranger .40 caliber Winchester Ranger .45 ACP Winchester Ranger .380 Auto Winchester brand jacketed hollow point .38 Special + P Winchester brand jacketed hollow point .22 Long -rifle CCI Stinger brand Did Officer Bucklin violate any Palm Springs Police Department policies during this event? In response to this portion of the investigation, we find that Officer Bucklin acted appropriately and did not violate any laws, rules, policies or ordinances. I reviewed both Officer Hutchinson's as well as Officer Bucklin's range records and they were both current and up to date. Refer to the attachment section for copies of both Officer Bucklin's and Off cer Hutchinson's Palm Springs Police Department range training records. I reviewed Officer Steepleton's use of force report for its deployment on the PSPD-005121 Wq suspect Arquieta. I also reviewed reports written by Officers Larson and Bridgewater. In response to this portion of the investigation, we find that Officer Steepleton did not violate and laws, rules, policies or ordinances. MMMMMIRM! Based on evidence reviewed in this case, witness statements and statements given by Officers Bucklin and Hutchinson, we find that these officers acted appropriately in their use of force on the suspects Flores and Goucher. We: find that the decision to use deadly force for the perceived threat of great bodily harm to themselves did not violate any laws, rules, policies or ordinances. We do find that Officer Hutchinson did violate section 500.08 of the Palm Springs Police Department manual. Officer Hutchinson failed to remove training ammunition from his handgun following a SWAT training day. Because of this oversight, Officer Hutchinson did shoot the suspects Goucber and Flores with department issued training ammunition. Although this ammunition is department issued, it is not authorized for on duty use. We find that both Officers Hutchinson and Bucklin were acting within the scope of their employment as, Palm Springs Police Officers. They were lawfully within this area conducting a criminal investigation. Upon locating this in progress crime, they had an obligation to protect the life of the victim in this incident. The also had probable cause to arrest the suspects Goucber and Flores for felony crimes. We find that both officers used force that was reasonable under the circumstances. Based on the actions of the suspects both officers perceived an imminent threat to their lives and fired their weapons in self defense. In addition to the threat to their personal safety, the officers also fired their weapons to prevent suspect #2 from re-entering the condo. They feared that if he made it back into the residence, he could possibly have taken the victim hostage. ossi We find that both officers used good officer safety tactics in their use of cover and concealment while observing this in progress crime. They were faced with watching a violent felony occurring before their eyes. Both officers remained calm and made reasonable force decisions.
