English: On July 16, 2019, around 6:43 p.m., LAPD, uniformed patrol officers, assigned to Rampart Division responded to a disturbance radio call of a "man with a knife" at a residence located on the 300 block of north Commonwealth Avenue in Los Angeles. When the officers arrived at the residence, they located the suspect (who was later identified as 49-year old, Herbert Vasquez) inside the rear bedroom of the apartment and refused to exit. As the officers were in the process of trying to de-escalate the situation, they opened the bedroom door at which time Vasquez armed with a machete advanced towards the officers, resulting in an OIS. Simultaneously the officers used a less lethal option. Vasquez then fled out the bedroom window and ran westbound from Commonwealth Avenue and entered a 7-11 convenience store.
The officers surrounded Vasquez inside the store and again attempted to verbalize with him but he refused to comply with the officers commands. The officers used a second less lethal device which aided the officers in taking Vasquez into custody without further incident. It was observed that Vasquez had injuries to fingers on both hands but it was unknown at the time if those injuries were the result of the OIS. The Los Angeles Fire Department paramedics responded to the scene and transported Vasquez to a local hospital for medical treatment. A knife was located at scene and booked as evidence. Fortunately, no officers or innocent bystanders were injured during this incident. |

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.
