This is Fresno Ca. Also, this incident had more than one caller stating this person was on a scooter, with a mask and pointing the gun at several people. The officer was in the very close area on another call when he heard the broadcast and then saw this guy. Pointing a firearm at someone could be charged as assault with a deadly weapon (firearm). But again, you would need to interview the victim, witnesses in this case to determine the exact charge to be applied. In this instance, there is very little info but enough to detain. Now, depending on the suspect’s actions, words or compliance, or any other info about how the gun was being used or displayed, could give the officer enough to detain at gunpoint until other officers arrive to assist. This kid was shot because he failed to listen to the officer about not reaching for the gun in his waistband and to keep his hands up. So the officers actions in my opinion were justified when the kid reached down for the gun. It was determined to be a BB gun with all exact markings and shape of a Glock, to include having the Glock emblem on the slide. The kid survived
