Shocking: Video shows the moment a man armed with an assault rifle gains access to a secure area of a Rialto police station just before an officer opened fire.
Video shows the moment a man armed with an assault rifle gains access to a secure area of a Rialto police station Monday just before an officer opened fire.
Police say the suspect entered a secure area of the station armed with the rifle. He was confronted and then shot by officers. He then gets out of his car with a rifle and approaches the officer's car door. The suspect doesn't shoot, but instead, runs away only to turn around and raise the weapon again.
"The brazenness of criminals in today's society is just overwhelming to me," said Rialto Police Chief Mark Kling during an evening press conference on Monday. "I've been doing this for 37 years and in 37 years, I would never ever thought that somebody would come in armed with some type of weapon and assaulted our police officers, and I think what is so concerning is it's just not here inside Rialto. We're talking everywhere.
