It was then when Ortega went into the water where he reportedly stabbed himself in the chest and pounded the knife deeper into his chest, Santa Fe Police Lt. Greg Boody said.Boody confirmed Smith's account of Ortega not being struck by the officers' gunfire.
The Santa Fe Police Department's Criminal Investigation Division took over what is classified as an officer-involved death of a suspect, since Ortega died during an incident involving Hitchcock police officers.
