Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Los Angeles, California — On May 5, 2023, around 12:40 a.m., uniformed patrol officers assigned to Southeast Patrol Division were conducting directed crime suppression in the area of Manchester Boulevard and Hoover Street. The officers observed a Hispanic female at an ATM along with a Hispanic male, later identified as Hector Macias, standing behind her. The officers engaged Macias in a conversation from their police vehicle. Based on Macias’ demeanor the officers formulated the opinion that Macias was possibly armed with a handgun. Macias and the female then abruptly entered a white Mercedes Benz parked next to them, being driven by another Hispanic male, and quickly sped away.

The officers immediately initiated a vehicle pursuit for a “415 Man with a Gun.” The Mercedes entered the 110 North Freeway, proceeded to the 10 East Freeway, and exited on Maple Avenue where Macias got out of the vehicle. The Mercedes then continued to drive away from the location. The officers made contact with Macias and ordered him to stop as he ran away, and Macias failed to comply with the officers’ commands. The officers exited their police vehicle and initiated a foot pursuit. As the officers ran after Macias, Macias tripped and fell in an open lot underneath the freeway. The officers caught up to Macias and a struggle ensued as Macias attempted to remove an unknown object from a satchel slung over his chest.

Macias then produced a firearm from the satchel and an officer-involved shooting occurred. Macias was struck by gunfire and transported to a local hospital where he was pronounced deceased. A grid search of the area for the pursued Mercedes was conducted by responding officers and the airship unit, but neither the vehicle nor the additional occupants were located. One officer sustained minor abrasions to his left hand. The Forensic Science Division personnel from the Firearm Analysis Unit responded, rendered the firearm safe and recovered it from the scene. The analysis revealed the semi-automatic firearm at scene was loaded. The officers involved in the incident have been identified as Southeast Division Police Officer Colt Worley, and Southeast Division Police Officer Anthony Lopez

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.
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 the image 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?.
