Diego and Officer Reno were both lying on the ground and on their right sides of their bodies, facing northbound towards Plenty Street. Diego was covered with blood. He had blood on both arms, face and clothing. Once Officer Reno saw me, he slowly turned Diego onto his stomach. Officer Reno pulled his right arm from underneath Diego's neck and grabbed ahold of Diego's right arm. Diego was now on the ground on his stomach, with his left arm tucked in underneath his body. I approached them and slowly placed my right knee on Diego's mid back, applying slight pressure. I put my right arm on his upper left shoulder, to prevent him from moving around on the ground. My next step was to pull Diego's left arm out from underneath him. Before I pulled his armed, I asked the people standing on the porch if they knew the subject's name and they told me it was Diego. I asked Diego to put his left arm behind his back and he did not respond. I then asked Diego the same thing but this time in Spanish and Diego complied. Diego put his arm behind his back and I handcuffed him. After Diego was handcuffed, Officer Reno and I both got up and placed Diego to his side.

Yes Gang Name 18TH STREET GANG Narrative On 4/10/15 at 0021 hours, I (Officer J. Reno #10023) was dispatched to Plenty St in response to a possible domestic violence incident. (Call #30) The call stated that there was a domestic violence incident that could be heard coming from the dispatched location. The calling party also reported hearing glass breaking and was asked to call the police by the daughter of the involved subjects. I was assisted by units 3A19 (Officer F. Martinez #5745), 3A54 (Officer J. Meyer #6311), 3A20 (Officer M. Talavera #5175), 3A22 (Officer S. Loughlin #6308), 3Z30 (Officer G. Payan #10557 and Officer C. Sandoval #10572), 3Z31 (Officer J. Oropeza #10549 and Officer M. Moss #10547), and 3A21 (Officer K. Johansen #10559). While en route, the communication center advised, that they had just received an unknown trouble call originating from the dispatched location. The calling party stated that three male and two female Hispanic family members had broken into the residence. The calling party could not answer any further questions and a disturbance could be heard in the background. Plenty St is a single story, single-family residence located on the south side of Plenty St. The front yard of Plenty St is enclosed with an approximately three foot tall fence. This fence is constructed of brick and white wrought iron. There is an opening in the north side of the fence through which a walkway extends and connects the south sidewalk of Plenty St to the north facing front door of Plenty St. There are two windows on the north side of the building, which are located on either side of the front door. Upon arrival, I parked my patrol vehicle in front of Plenty St, which is one residence to the east of Plenty St. I observed a male Hispanic and a female Hispanic standing in the west driveway of Plenty St, which separates from Plenty St. Both of the subjects were pointing emphatically at Plenty St and yelling Report Officer 10023/RENO,JEREMY R Printed At 11/02/2020 08:59 Page 2 of 4 15-21572 Supplement No 0006 LONG BEACH POLICE DEPARTMENT Narrative that the people inside needed my help. I exited my patrol vehicle and immediately heard yelling coming from inside Plenty St. As I approached the residence, I observed that the front door was wide open and that the window just east of the front door was shattered. The screen for the window was lying outside and there was glass strewn about the ground. I entered the residence and observed three male Hispanics and a female Hispanic engaged in a struggle in the northwest corner of the living room. There was a sofa bed located along the west wall of the living room, which was made down into a bed at the time. The sofa bed extended east form the west wall into the center of the room. The sofa bed was so large, that it took up a majority of the floor space in the living room. There was an approximately two foot wide gap between the north wall of the living room and the sofa bed. It was in this small gap, in the northwest corner of the living room, where the struggle was occurring. One of the male Hispanics (Diego Gonzalez) was being held against the north wall of the residence by the other two male Hispanics (brothers and The female Hispanic () was standing behind the brothers and yelling frantically. Gonzalez's back was pushed up against the wall and the brothers were holding him in place with their outstretched arms. Gonzalez was yelling incoherently and swinging his arm wildly at the brothers. All of the subjects involved were covered in blood. Gonzalez in particular was extremely bloody. Gonzalez had blood on his face, arms and shirt.Upon seeing me enter the residence,and the brothers began to plead for my assistance. At this point, I was unaware of what was actually occurring. I was dispatched to a possible domestic violence incident, and I believed that Gonzalez was being restrained as a suspect in the incident. I squeezed into the gap between the wall and the sofa bed and attempted to take control of Gonzalez's left hand. Gonzalez let out an unintelligible yell and ripped his hand from my grasp. After pulling his hand away, Gonzalez swung his left hand at me, but did not connect. I ordered Gonzalez to stop resisting and again took hold of his left hand. Gonzalez left hand was so covered in blood that it was incredibly slippery and difficult to hold on to. I was able to hold on to Gonzalez's left hand for long enough to pull him away from the corner. Once Gonzalez was free from the brothers, Gonzalez began to jerk his left hand away from me in an attempt to free it from my grasp. I ordered Gonzalez to lie on the sofa bed while I struggled to maintain control of his blood soaked left hand, Instead of compliance, I was greeted by the same unintelligible yelling as before. Suddenly, Gonzalez backed into me and pinned me between him and the north wall of the living room. When Gonzalez pinned me against the wall, his left hand slipped from my grasp. Gonzalez was violently resisting as I attempted to detain him as a possible suspect in a domestic violence incident. Gonzalez was refusing to comply with any of my lawful commands. During this incident, I was wearing my department issued uniform, which is adorned with patches and a badge, which clearly identify me as a police officer. Due to the tight confines in the area in which I was attempting to detain Gonzalez, my force options were severely limited. Based on these circumstances, I determined that the safest and most effective manner of controlling Gonzalez would be the Carotid Restraint. While pressed against the north wall, I encircled Gonzalez's neck with my right arm. I aligned Gonzalez's chin with the bend in my right elbow and began applying pressure to the carotid arteries on either side of his neck. I applied this pressure using my right forearm and right bicep. As I began to apply pressure, Gonzalez reached up with both of his hands and attempted to pull my arm away from his neck. While pulling on my arm, Gonzalez continued to push me against the wall, but now he began to push us both towards the open front door. In order to prevent Gonzalez from pulling my arm away, I transitioned to the Chancery Technique of the Carotid Restraint. This was accomplished by taking hold of my left bicep with my right hand, placing my left forearm behind Gonzalez's head, and taking hold of my right shoulder with my left hand. Once my arms were in the proper position, I once again began to apply pressure to Gonzalez's carotid arteries by pushing my elbows together. As I applied pressure, Gonzalez was able to push us both to the front door of the residence and out onto the front walkway. Once on the walkway, Gonzalez continued to push backwards, which caused us both to fall over onto the ground. I was now lying on my back with Gonzalez lying on top of me. I continued to apply pressure to Gonzalez's carotid arteries for approximately twenty seconds. During this time, Gonzalez kicked his legs and rolled back and forth in an attempt to free himself from my grasp. Report Officer 10023/RENO,JEREMY R Printed At 11/02/2020 08:59 Page 3 of 4 15-21572 Supplement No 0006 LONG BEACH POLICE DEPARTMENT Narrative After approximately twenty seconds of direct pressure, Gonzalez suddenly went limp and stopped resisting. Gonzalez's sudden change in demeanor was accompanied by a loud snoring sound that lead me to believe that he had lost consciousness. I immediately released my hold on Gonzalez and began to roll him off of me. Typically in these situations, a subject is rendered unconscious for twenty to thirty seconds, which provides an opportunity to handcuff them. In this case, Gonzalez regained consciousness in approximately five seconds. Gonzalez regained consciousness so quickly; I was not even able to get him off of me before he started struggling again. When Gonzalez regained consciousness, he once again began to writhe back and forth while he kicked his legs wildly. Gonzalez was still violently resisting, and I was in a disadvantageous position with him already on top of me. Because of this, I once again encircled Gonzalez's neck and began to apply the Carotid Restraint. I placed my right arm around Gonzalez's neck in the same manner as before. I was finally able to get to my radio and I requested assistance "Code 3" (emergency lights and siren). At this time, Gonzalez rolled onto his right side and I mirrored his movement. As I began to once again apply pressure to Gonzalez's carotid arteries, I heard the unmistakable sound of a patrol vehicle arriving on scene. An unknown subject yelling, "Help him", accompanied the sound of the arriving patrol vehicle. Shortly thereafter, Officer Martinez ran up to assist me. As Officer Martinez approached, Gonzalez stopped resisting and I immediately released the Carotid Restraint. I rolled Gonzalez onto his stomach and placed my left knee onto his buttocks. I transitioned my bodyweight to his person to prevent him from climbing back to his feet. I pulled Gonzalez right arm from beneath his body and placed it behind his back. Officer Martinez assisted me by handcuffing Gonzalez. Once Gonzalez was handcuffed, I determined that he was both conscious and breathing before Officer Martinez searched him. After Gonzalez had been searched, he was placed in a seated position on the curb where he could be observed and the Long Beach Fire Department was requested to render immediate medical aid. It was at this time, that I discovered that Gonzalez was bleeding from a large laceration on his right forearm. I also observed that both of my lower arms were covered in blood from my hands to my elbows. I also discovered that my uniform was now covered in blood. I immediately washed the blood off of my hands and arms to ensure that I was uninjured. After washing the blood off of me, I discovered that I had sustained an abrasion to my right elbow and a small laceration to my right forearm. This may have been attributed to the area we were struggling being covered in broken glass from the shattered window. Engine and Rescue #11 from the Long Beach Fire Department responded to the scene to treat Gonzalez's injuries. During the LBFD's evaluation, Gonzalez stated that he might be infected with a blood borne communicable disease due to promiscuity and intravenous drug usage. Unit 3S35 (Sgt. D. Mendoza #5710) responded to the scene.I advised Sgt. Mendoza of the use of force and the potential medical concerns involved. Sgt. Mendoza notified the Watch Commander (Lt. J. Gaynor #5412). Officer Loughlin took photographs of the scene as well as the involved parties. Rescue #11 transported Gonzalez to Long Beach Community Hospital for medical treatment. Gonzalez received sutures in his right arm for the injury sustained while breaking the glass at the residence. A blood test was also conducted, which determined that Gonzalez did not have any communicable diseases. I responded to the after hours Occupational Health Clinic at Long Beach Community Hospital due to the potential communicable disease exposure. After receiving medical clearance, Officer Johansen transported Gonzalez to the Long Beach Police Department's main booking facility. Gonzalez was booked for burglary, assault with a deadly weapon, and resisting arrest with violence. Following the booking process, Gonzalez was released into the custody of the 6th floor men's jail. For further on this incident, please refer to Officer Payan's main incident report and the connected follow up reports.
