Summary
[edit]| Description |
English: Los Angeles, California — On July 3, 2024, around 9:00 p.m., Southeast Area uniformed patrol officers initiated a traffic stop on a white, four door sedan at Broadway and Rosecrans Avenue. The suspect’s vehicle initially began to accelerate away but stopped suddenly on Broadway north of Rosecrans Avenue. Before officers could exit the police vehicle, the suspect, armed with a fully automatic weapon, fired at officers without warning. An Officer-Involved Shooting (OIS) occurred when one officer returned fire. The suspect fled the scene in the vehicle. It is unknown if the suspect was struck by gunfire. Authorities later determined the rounds were fired from a fully automatic AR-style rifle, a self-loading rifle that continuously chambers and fires rounds when the trigger is held down.
Officers attempted to follow the suspect’s vehicle for approximately 200 yards but lost sight of the vehicle in the area of 135th Street and Broadway. Both officers sustained cuts and scratches from glass fragments caused by the suspects rounds striking the police vehicle windshield, with one officer receiving two graze wounds to his head. Los Angeles Fire Department personnel transported the officers to a local hospital where they were treated for their injuries and released the following morning. Numerous rifle casings from the suspect’s weapon were recovered from the scene. No other officers or citizens were injured during the incident. On July 12, 2024, Los Angeles Police arrested 31-year-old Malcolm Guss Jr.. He is charged in case 24CMCF01337 on one count of attempted murder of a peace officer; two counts of assault with a machine gun upon a peace officer; one count of shooting at an occupied motor vehicle; one count of possession of a machine gun; and two counts of possession of firearm by a felon. During the ensuing investigation, police located and seized the Chevrolet sedan. Police also seized a firearm believed to have been involved in the crime. He was booked into police custody on $2,000,000 bail, booking number 6845941. If convicted as charged, Guss faces a maximum sentence of life in prison. 0:00 - Dashcam Footage 1:51 - Bodycam: Officer Carutasu 2:19 - Bodycam: Officer Rodney |

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.
