Asato #11333, was working in a full regulation Long Beach Police Department uniform and assigned to work as unit 2A14. I assisted unit 2A12, Officer E. Shear #11334, who was dispatched to regarding a domestic violence incident (call#1531). The call stated to meet the calling party in the alley regarding a domestic violence incident. The calling party pepper sprayed her drunken husband who attempted to hit her. The husband was described as a male White, 56 years old wearing a white T-shirt and Khaki pants. No weapons were mentioned. Multiple units assisted including unit 2A11 (Officer J. Jenkin #11023) and unit 2A41 (Officer K. Lopez #11091). is an east facing single story house located on the west side of Stanley Avenue south of 10th Street. The house is accessed from the sidewalk by a pedestrian gate between the front yard and the sidewalk. The north facing front door opens into an open living room. West of the living room is the kitchen with a sink located on the west wall of the kitchen. On arrival with Officer Jenkin and Officer Lopez, we contacted the victim, later identified as , who informed us her husband/Arrestee, later identified as Wesley Clark, was inside of the residence. From the sidewalk in front of the residence, I could clearly hear the sound of Clark screaming unintelligibly from inside of the residence. Due to the exigency of the domestic violence incident and the sound of distress from inside of the residence, Officer Jenkin, Officer Lopez and I entered through the open front door of the residence to check the well being of the Arrestee. From the living room of the residence, I observed the Arrestee standing inside of the kitchen facing the sink away from us. The Arrestee was wearing a white button up shirt and light colored pants (matching the dispatched description). The Arrestee was yelling unintelligibly in anger. As we approached the Arrestee, I could see blood smeared on both of his hands and large shards of broken glass next to him on the counter next to the kitchen sink. The Arrestee's face was red and tears were streaming from his face. I smelled the strong odor of an unknown alcoholic beverage emanating from the Arrestee's breath and person. Report Officer 11333/ASATO,JARED M Printed At 02/03/2020 14:36 Page 2 of 3 19-37145 Supplement No ORIG LONG BEACH POLICE DEPARTMENT Narrative Due to the report of possible domestic violence, the close proximity of large shards of glass to the Arrestee, the Arrestee's heightened emotional state, and his location in the kitchen, I was fearful that he would arm himself with shards of glass or other weapons nearby (kitchen knives) and attack others or injure himself. Due to these fears, I decided the Arrestee needed to be immediately detained for our safety and his own. I told the Arrestee, "Police, put your hands behind your back." The Arrestee did not comply and as he turned towards us he swung his arms wildly. In order to effect a lawful detention of the Arrestee, I grasped the Arrestee's right arm with both of my hands and once again said, "Police, put your arms behind your back." Officer Lopez grasped the Arrestee's left arm. As I attempted to place the Arrestee's right arm behind his back, he physically resisted by pulling his right arm away from me and towards the front of his body. The Arrestee yelled, "Get off of me!" The Arrestee then used his right elbow to strike me twice in my upper torso (I was still holding his arm and I was in close proximity to him). Officer Lopez yelled, "Stop resisting!" Due to the Arrestee's violent resistance (deliberately striking me with his elbow), I placed my left forearm behind the Arrestee's neck and while holding his upper right arm with my right hand, I drove the Arrestee to the ground. The Arrestee landed on the kitchen floor north of the sink with his stomach to the ground, I placed my upper torso on the right side of the Arrestee's back in order to pin the Arrestee to the ground. Officer Jenkin again told the Arrestee to put his arms behind his back. The Arrestee continued to resist by kicking his legs and refusing to place his arms behind his back. Due to the Arrestee's continued violent resistance, I encircled the Arrestee's neck with my left arm, locked my left hand to my right biceps and applied a Long Beach Police Department approved control hold - the carotid control hold. I applied pressure to the Arrestee's carotid arteries located on the sides of his neck with my left arm. I held the hold for approximately five seconds and during that duration, the Arrestee continued to resist while Officer Jenkin placed handcuffs on him. Shortly before the time Officer Jenkin got the handcuffs on the Arrestee, he suddenly stopped resisting. Officer Lopez informed me the Arrestee was unconscious (Officer Lopez had a direct view of the Arrestee's face and I did not) and I immediately released the control hold. I observed the Arrestee was unconscious and I immediately moved him onto his right side and checked his vital signs. The Arrestee was breathing and had a pulse. Officer Jenkin later checked the handcuffs for fit and double locked them. Due to the fact that I already had a significant position of advantage over the Arrestee (on the ground pinning the Arrestee to the ground), I determined releasing the advantageous position in order to deploy pepper spray, an Electronic Control Device (TASER), Sap, or baton, was not practical or safe. I also determined the Arrestee would continue to violently resist and in order to stop his violent resistance, and to prevent injury to Officer Jenkin, Officer Lopez, and myself, I decided to employ the carotid control so we could take the Arrestee into custody. Officer Lopez immediately requested paramedics and a field supervisor. Officer Lopez, Officer Jenkin, and I did not suffer any injuries as a result of the use of force against the Arrestee. Due to my positioning on top of the Arrestee, I was not able to observe the actions of Officer Lopez or Officer Jenkin once we were on the kitchen floor. Unit 2S7 (Sergeant K. Green #6276) responded to the scene. Long Beach Fire Department Engine 4, Rescue 4 and BLS 2 arrived and evaluated the Arrestee. Officer Lopez rode in the back of BLS 2 as the Arrestee was transported to St. Mary Medical Center for medical clearance. Officer Shear arrived and conducted knock and talk interviews. See Officer Shear's follow up report for further. Officer Jenkin spoke with Hicks. See Officer Jenkin's follow up report for further on Hicks' statement. Officer Shear took photographs of the scene, the Arrestee, Officer Jenkin, Officer Lopez, and myself. Officer Shear later uploaded the photographs to MIDEO. Officer Shear responded to St. Mary Medical Center and after the Arrestee was medically cleared by the hospital staff, he transported the Arrestee to the Long Beach Police Department Jail where the Arrestee was booked for, 243(e)(1) PC Domestic battery, 148(a)(1) PC Resisting a Police Officer, and 69 PC Resisting an executive officer.

Lopez #11091) was working full uniformed patrol in a marked black and white patrol vehicle. I assisted Unit 2A14 (Officer J. Asato #11133) regarding a domestic violence that just occurred a . (Call #1531) The call advised the Victim pepper sprayed the Suspect because the Suspect attempted to hit her. Upon arrival, I observed a female (later identified as ) running to the front gate. The female appeared to be in distress and crying. The Victim stated he (later identified as her husband, Suspect Wesley Clark) was inside. The Victim's voice was shaky and frantic. I heard a male screaming from inside the residence. I asked the Victim if that was him (Suspect). The Victim stated it was and she pepper sprayed him because she was scared. The Victim stated the Suspect was a nice guy and not to hurt him. The Victim informed us that she had dogs inside the residence and stated to be careful. Officer Asato, Officer J. Jenkin #11023, and I went inside the residence to contact the Suspect due to the fact that the Suspect was pepper sprayed and we could hear him yelling from the front gate of the residence which was located approximately 15 away from the front door as if he was in distress. When I entered the residence, to check the Suspect's well, I followed the screams into the kitchen. I observed the Suspect learning over the sink and observed the Suspect's forearms covered in blood. At this time I could not see where the blood was coming from or whose blood it belonged to. Officer Asato advised the Suspect that we were the police and asked what was going on. The Suspect continued to yell (unknown slurred words) and turned towards us. The Suspect had his eyes closed, swaying from side to side, and began to swing his left arm towards us with an open hand in attempt for us to keep our distance. The Suspect, still holding onto the sink, turned back towards the sink. At this time, I could smell a strong alcoholic substance coming from the Suspect. Based on this, the Suspect demeanor, slurred words, and unsteady balance, I believed the Suspect was intoxicated. At this time, I believed the Suspect was involved in a domestic violence incident, had not been searched, appeared to be intoxicated, was covered in blood, and swinging his arm towards officers. Based on these facts, I was going to place the Suspect into handcuffs, for everyone's safety and pending further investigation. Officer Asato told the Suspect to put his hands behind his back. The Suspect ignored the commands and remained Report Officer 11091/LOPEZ,KAYLIE SAVANNAH Printed At 02/03/2020 14:36 Page 1 of 2 19-37145 Supplement No 0001 LONG BEACH POLICE DEPARTMENT Narrative facing the sink with both hands on the counter. The Suspect was still standing in front of the sink with both hands on the counter. Officer Asato reached for the Suspect's right arm. At the same time, I reached for the Suspect's left arm. The Suspect immediately pulled in his left arm to the center of his chest. In my peripheral vision I was able to observe the Suspect pull his right arm up and attempted to elbow Officer Asato. I told the Suspect, "Stop resisting", and to give me his arm. The Suspect's body was leaning on the sink, his left hand was in a fist, and his forearm was tightly clenched to his chest. I was able to place my right hand in between the Suspect's left forearm and chest and grab his wrist. At this time, I observed Officer Asato place his left forearm around the back of the Suspect's neck. I felt the Suspect turn to the right and begin to fall. Based on my positioning, in between the sink and the Suspect, my right hand being pressed against the Suspect's left forearm and chest. I was unable to release my grip of the Suspect's left wrist and I fell with the Suspect to the ground. I fell on the left side of the Suspect's back. I was able to release my grip of the Suspect's left wrist. I observed Officer Asato begin to apply the carotid. I attempted to grab the Suspect's left arm and place it behind his back. The Suspect's left arm was still tight to his chest and would not give it to me. I heard Officer Jenkin state repeatedly to the Suspect to put his hands behind his back. I looked at the Suspect's face as Officer Asato was applying the carotid. The Suspect's face went from teeth clenched, and eyes tightly shut to a relaxed face, indicating to me that Officer Asato had successfully applied the carotid and the Suspect was rendered unconscious. I advised Officer Asato that the Suspect was unconscious. I was able to obtain the Suspect's left forearm and place it behind his back. Officer Jenkin grabbed the Suspect's right hand and placed it behind his back. Officer Jenkin placed the Suspect into handcuffs (checked for fit and double-locked). Officer Asato checked the Suspect's pulse and observed the Suspect's breathing. The Suspect regained consciousness and was confused about what had just occurred. The Suspect could not remember anything. The Suspect was transported to the hospital by Long Beach Fire Department. The Suspect was later transported to jail. For further regarding the Suspect's statement refer to Officer Shears report. For further regarding the Victim's statement refer to Officer Jenkin's report.

The victim stated she walked inside the house to see what was going on and did not see where officers were until she walked into the kitchen. While standing at the door way in between the dining area and the kitchen, the victim observed officers on the ground around Clark. The victim stated she could not see what was happening, just that we were, "On top," of Clark. The victim walked away, but heard an officer say, "Put your hands behind your back." Unit 2S7 (Sergeant K. Green #6276) responded to the scene. Officer Shear took photographs. For further, refer to Mideo. I collected the pepper spray used by the victim. I kept it in my possession until later placing it into evidence. For further, refer to property report.

I walked Clark out to my car to transport him to 400 West Broadway for booking. Clark was asking me questions about what was going on with his situation. While Clark was speaking to me, I could smell the strong odor of alcohol emanating from his breath and person. Clark would repeatedly ask me the same questions over and over and did not seem to understand the simple responses I was providing him. Clark's eyes were watery and red, however he told me he had gotten pepper spray in his eyes and face. Clark's demeanor was argumentative when speaking with him, however he generally complied with instructions given. Prior to transporting Clark, I checked his handcuffs for proper fit and made sure they were double locked. Clark did not complain about his handcuffs while in custody. BOOKING: At 400 West Broadway, I took close up photos of Clark's neck and attempted to take photos of his hands. I was not able to get good photos of his hands because Clark kept pulling away and turning his body away. He said he did not want me taking photographs of his hands, but would not give me a reason why. Clark also refused to provide a BAC sample.

I asked him what he meant by his question and he said, "Number 4." I told Clark I could not advise him on what he should do but that it is his right to have a lawyer present during questioning. He asked me what his charges are and I advised of he was arrested for domestic battery and resisting arrest. I asked him if he is invoking his rights to have a lawyer present during questioning and he told me, "Yes, its the smart thing to do." I did not question Clark regarding his arrest.

Upon my arrival, I contacted the Officers involved in the use of force incident to ascertain what had occurred and conduct an administrative investigation surrounding the incident. As a part of my investigation, I responded to our booking facility at 400 West Broadway to conduct an interview of ARR Wesley Clark. At approximately 0115 hours, on 7/8/19, I spoke to Clark inside of our booking area. I audio recorded this conversation. I placed a copy of this recording into Mideo. Upon speaking to Clark I immediately detected a strong odor of alcohol emanating from his person. Clark had a flushed face, his speech was slurred, and his demeanor would fluctuate from cooperative and calm to argumentative and hostile. Clark was difficult to speak to due to his apparent level of intoxication. He would not directly answer questions and would ramble when speaking, not always making sense. It should be noted that I did not observe any visible injuries to Clark's face/head/neck areas. He had dried blood on his hands. He did not appear to have any other injuries. The following is a synopsis of my interview with Clark. For further on the interview, please refer to the audio file in Mideo. I explained to Clark that I was conducting an administrative investigation into the use of force incident involving him. He explained that he had gotten into an argument into his wife which led her to pepper spray him. He stated that he had been drinking earlier in the night and had consumed 2-3 beers. Clark recalled officers arriving at his home and recalls being in the kitchen at the time. I asked Clark if he recalled the officer saying anything to him and he stated they made "agreements". I asked him to explain what he meant but he was unable to be more specific. He stated he recalled the officers grabbing his arms after his wife pepper sprayed him in the face. Clark then stated that the officers read him his rights, then put him to the ground and handcuffed him. Clark was extremely argumentative during my interview and I was unable to obtain any further details surrounding the incident from him. At the conclusion of my interview, I released Clark back to Officer Shear to continue the booking process. I had no further contact with Clark.
