Summary
[edit]| Description |
English: Madera County, California — On November 20, 2024 shortly after 3:30pm, the Madera County Sheriff’s Communications Center received a report of multiple hit and runs with a vehicle in the area of Highway 49 and State Route 41 in Oakhurst. The suspect was driving a stolen vehicle and the owner recognized it. The victim then called 9-1-1 and stayed on the phone with Dispatch updating the location. During the call, the suspect also rammed the reporting party’s car. Deputies set up a perimeter in the area in an effort to spike and disable the vehicle, however, before the suspect made it to that point, he drove the vehicle off the road and ran. Deputies then gave chase down a long driveway. During the foot chase, the suspect shot K9 Obie with a shotgun and an exchange of gunfire occurred. K9 Obie and the suspect were both struck.
One deputy on scene is an EMT and rendered immediate medical assistance to the suspect. The suspect, 41-year-old Allen Scott Williams of Mariposa, was transported by helicopter to a Fresno hospital where he will make a full recovery. K9 Obie was taken to a nearby emergency veterinary clinic. X-ray images show his body is riddled with shotgun pellets. He is expected to remain at the veterinary hospital for at least several days. According to doctors, he will live the rest of his life with the numerous pellets, but is expected to make a recovery following an extensive rehabilitation period. Williams is currently on probation out of Mariposa County, and has several active felony warrants for his arrest for charges including felon in possession of ammunition, and felony assault with a deadly weapon. Upon his release from the hospital, he will be booked into the Madera County Jail for multiple felony charges. 1:07 - Dashcam: Deputy #1 1:43 - Bodycam: Deputy #1 2:48 - Bodycam: Deputy #2 3:31 - Bodycam: Deputy #3 |

Licensing
[edit]

This work was created by a government unit (including state, county, city, and municipal government agencies) that derives its powers from the laws of the State of California and is subject to disclosure under the California Public Records Act (Government Code § 6250 et seq.). It is a public record that was not created by an agency which state law has allowed to claim copyright, and is therefore in the public domain in the United States.
Records subject to disclosure under the Public Records Act
Pursuant to the California Public Records Act (Government Code § 6250 et seq.) "Public records" include "any writing containing information relating to the conduct of the public’s business prepared, owned, used, or retained by any state or local agency regardless of physical form or characteristics." (Cal. Gov't. Code § 6252(e).) notes that "[a]ll public records are subject to disclosure unless the Public Records Act expressly provides otherwise." County of Santa Clara v. CFAC California Government Code § 6254 lists categories of documents not subject to disclosure under the Public Records Act. In addition, computer software is not considered a public record, while data and statistics collected (whether collected knowingly or unknowingly) by a government authority whose powers derive from the laws of California are public records (such as license plate reader images) pursuant to EFF & ACLU of Southern California v. Los Angeles Police Department & Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department and are not exempt from disclosure and are public records. Although the act only covers “writing,” the Act, pursuant to Government Code § 6252(g), states: “Writing” means any handwriting, typewriting, printing, photostating, photographing, photocopying, transmitting by electronic mail or facsimile, and every other means of recording upon any tangible thing any form of communication or representation, including letters, words, pictures, sounds, or symbols, or combinations thereof, and any record thereby created, regardless of the manner in which the record has been stored. Agencies permitted to claim copyright
California's Constitution and its statutes do not permit any agency to claim copyright for "public records" unless authorized to do so by law. The following agencies are permitted to claim copyright and any works of these agencies should be assumed to be copyrighted outside of the United States without clear evidence to the contrary:
County of Santa Clara v. CFAC held that the State of California, or any government entity which derives its power from the State, cannot enforce a copyright in any record subject to the Public Records Act in the absence of another state statute giving it the authority to do so. This applies even if there is a copyright notice, so long as the State of California or one of its agencies (other than those listed above) is indicated as the copyright holder. Note: Works that are considered "public records" but were not created by a state or municipal government agency may be copyrighted by their author; the Supremacy Clause of the United States Constitution prevents state law from overriding the author's right to copyright protection that is granted by federal law. For example, a state agency may post images online of the final appearance of a building under construction; while the images may have to be released by such agency since they are public records, their creator (eg. architecture/construction firm) retains copyright rights to these images unless the contract with the agency says otherwise. See: Government-in-the-Sunshine Manual: To what extent does federal law preempt state law regarding public inspection of records?. Copyrightable Works by the State in the United States: Works published by agencies that are permitted to claim copyright per state law should be tagged with {{PD-US-GovEdict}} instead of this template due to the reasons listed on that template.
