Family searching for answers after man killed in same Baldwin Park shooting that left police officer dead

Darius Wong, a father of two, dropped his daughters, wife and sister-in-law off outside the front door of a family party in Baldwin Park on Saturday so he could park their car down the street. For reasons that are still unclear to his family, Wong never made it to the party. He was instead shot dead on the street, and now the family says they're seeking justice. Wong, 43 of Hacienda Heights, was the man killed on Filhurst Avenue in Baldwin Park, which led to more tragedy just minutes later. After finding Wong lying on the sidewalk at about 7:12 p.m., a neighbor called the police. Members of the Baldwin Park Police Department arrived and found Wong dead. Darius Wong, 43, was shot and killed on Saturday, May 31, 2025, just before an officer with the Baldwin Park Police Department was allegedly killed by the same suspect. The Vuong Family In the next few moments, the officers encountered a suspect, who authorities say was armed with a rifle. A gun battle ensued, leading to two officers and the suspect being shot. One of the officers, later identified by officials as Samuel Riveros, was pronounced dead at a local hospital. Another officer, Anthony Pimentel, was briefly hospitalized. The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department identified the suspect as 22-year-old Eduardo Roberto Medina-Berumen. He was also wounded and remained hospitalized as of Monday, but he could face two murder charges upon his release. It's not yet clear what motive Medina-Berumen could have had when he allegedly shot and killed Wong and Riveros. When speaking with KCAL News, the family of Wong alleged Medina-Berumen got in a dispute over a parking spot with another guest of the party Wong was attending, although he wasn't involved. They say Wong was shot in the back, unclear of the situation. "Darius left this world far too soon and in the most innocent of ways — without truly knowing what was happening," Wong's brother Victor Vuong wrote in an online fundraiser. His family called him a "hardworking man who cared deeply for his family," which includes two daughters who are 3 and 5 years old. L.A. County District Attorney Nathan Hochman's office said charges against Medina-Berumen were set to be announced on Tuesday afternoon.

Nick Frost on Playing Hagrid in HBO's HARRY POTTER: 'I'm Never Going to Copy Robbie Coltrane' — GeekTyrant

Nick Frost knows exactly what he's walking into, with HBO's Harry Potter series adaptation, and he's not taking it lightly. Frost is stepping into the oversized boots of Rubeus Hagrid, the beloved Hogwarts gamekeeper originally brought to life by the late Robbie Coltrane. While fans might be wondering how Frost plans to approach such a towering character, the Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz actor made it clear that there will be no mimicry, but plenty of respect. The actor told Collider: 'I'm going to try and do something, not 'different,' I think you have to be respectful to the subject matter, but within that, there's scope for minutia. 'I always read Hagrid as he's like a lovely, lost, violent, funny, warm child. I think the beauty of being able to do a book a season means I get to explore that a lot more, and I can't wait.' Frost's comments come with a heartfelt nod to Coltrane's legacy, with Frost saying: 'I'm really aware of what went before me.' While he's carving out his own version of the character, he's doing it in full view of the shadow cast by Coltrane's 'amazing performance.' This new HBO take on Harry Potter is shaping up to be something far more expansive than the films. Each season will adapt one book, offering deeper dives into characters and storylines that didn't always have room to breathe in the original movie format. That added depth is part of what excites Frost, who clearly sees the opportunity to peel back the layers of Hagrid's complex personality. Joining Frost in this reimagined series are Dominic McLaughlin as Harry Potter, Arabella Stanton as Hermione Granger, and Alastair Stout as Ron Weasley. Other key roles include John Lithgow as Dumbledore, Janet McTeer as McGonagall, Paapa Essiedu as Snape, Luke Thallon as Quirrell, and Paul Whitehouse as Filch. Behind the scenes, the show is helmed by Succession director Mark Mylod, with His Dark Materials writer Francesca Gardiner as showrunner. Executive producers include J.K. Rowling, Neil Blair, Ruth Kenley-Letts, and David Heyman, who also produced the original film series. For Frost, he is looking to find the humanity and the humor inside the half-giant character who's rough around the edges but endlessly lovable. And if there's one thing he's sure of, it's this: 'I'm never going to copy his ( Coltrane's) work.'

Jonathan Morgan exhibited ‘bullying behaviour', called Maddy Cusack a ‘psycho', hearing told

Jonathan Morgan, the manager at the centre of the Football Association's investigation into the Maddy Cusack tragedy, subjected players to 'bullying behaviour,' branded her a 'psycho' and contributed to her deterioration in mental health, a hearing has been told. Morgan, who has been blamed by Cusack's family for causing her emotional anguish, was accused in one player's evidence of shouting during one game: 'You're always been a ******* fruitcake, Maddy.' Advertisement The player in question, goalkeeper Fran Kitching, told investigators: 'This type of abuse was not uncommon for Jonathan Morgan.' Other witness statements were read out during a pre-trial inquest review that took in written evidence from some of Cusack's former team-mates, including one who accused Morgan of leaving certain players so unhappy they had formed a 'trauma bond.' Cusack, 27, took her own life in September 2023, leading to her family putting together a seven-page complaint about her last seven months with Sheffield United — coinciding with the appointment of Morgan as their women's team manager the previous February. Morgan has always denied being to blame in any way, stating that they had a normal working relationship and that he had tried to help Cusack combine her playing commitments with working at the club as a commercial executive. However, the family's complaint, stretching to more than 3,350 words, led to the FA opening an investigation into the alleged issues between Cusack and Morgan in Sheffield and, before that, when they were player and manager at Leicester City from 2018-19. That inquiry has now been completed, with around 45 witnesses interviewed, and the FA will update its provisional report once a full inquest has been heard later this year. At that stage, disciplinary proceedings could follow. In a preliminary hearing at Chesterfield coroner's court, with Cusack's parents, David and Deborah, sitting in the front row, Morgan appeared via video-link to argue that the FA investigation had taken evidence from a 'one-sided selection of witnesses and there hasn't been anybody to challenge the creditability of the witnesses, or being put forward to speak for me.' The hearing was focussed on deciding which witness accounts should be included at the full inquest and the scope of what the coroner, Sophie Cartwright, should investigate. Morgan went on to state there had been 'a manipulation of information' to create a narrative against him and that the witnesses had been sourced by Cusack's family. Advertisement As one example, he claimed that Kitching held a grievance against him after a proposed transfer to Leicester fell through at the last minute while he was their manager. He also alleged that another player had stated she would never play for him, but that he had evidence she had texted a member of his backroom staff to ask if she could join his team. Morgan also said many of the witnesses giving evidence were players who had been released. Dean Armstrong KC, representing Cusack's family, told the hearing the inquest would focus on Morgan's 'bullying behaviour' and that the former manager had rules that included 'not allowing relationships between players and making it almost as if it was a sackable offence.' Taome Oliver, who played alongside Cusack at Leicester, said in her evidence she was 'sure (JM) was a contributing factor (to Cusack's death)' and, speaking of her own experiences, that 'he made me feel so alone' she had found it hard to play the sport she loved. A statement from Nat Johnson, another of Cusack's former team-mates, recalled a game when the former England under-19 international was playing for Sheffield against a Leicester side managed by Morgan. According to Johnson's evidence, Morgan shouted from the touchline: 'Still a psycho then, Maddy.' Morgan denies he did so. Evidence provided by Nina Wilson, a former Sheffield United goalkeeper, said Cusack had 'no hope of anything changing while JM (Morgan) was in charge … Maddy would have felt helpless.' She added: 'I feel MC's death was preventable. It always felt like JM's treatment of players was personal rather than on football ability.' The hearing was also told about a written statement from Callum Davidson, formerly a sports therapist for Leicester, who alleged that Morgan 'would treat players so badly they would leave without (the club) having to pay up their contracts.' Advertisement New signings would be regarded as the manager's 'favourites,' according to Davidson, but as soon as he no longer wanted them his attitude would change and he would tell staff, for example, that a player was 'cancerous and no good for the club.' Another player, Ellie Wilson, had lodged her own grievance against Morgan because of his alleged behaviour. The hearing was told that Sheffield United had dealt with her complaint in the form of a settlement involving a non-disclosure agreement, preventing her from speaking out publicly. She, too, linked Cusack's death to the manager. There was also strong criticism of the club, via legal representatives for Cusack's family, for allegedly not having a proper support system in place. This, it was alleged, had left the relevant players in a position whereby they felt there was no way to report their grievances. A number of players, it emerged, had complained there was no real process in the place. 'Looking back, I felt the club failed MC (Cusack) and me,' Ellie Wilson said in her written statement. 'If they had investigated the matter properly, MC might still be here today.' Morgan was previously cleared in an independent inquiry, commissioned by United, that concluded in December 2023 with the club's chief executive, Stephen Bettis, writing to Cusack's family to confirm no disciplinary action was being taken. In his letter to the family, Bettis stated that none of the people interviewed had 'heard or witnessed any bullying or inappropriate behaviour' towards Cusack, or any other player. Bettis did, however, acknowledge that Morgan's behaviour 'divided opinion' among the people interviewed. Some found him supportive and caring. Others described his style of management as 'isolating some players, quite authoritative and intimidating.' Advertisement The inquiry was carried out by Dennis Shotton, a former detective working for a Sunderland-based company, Safecall, that has had links with United for a number of years. Shotton's work was heavily criticised by Cusack's family for getting names mixed up and a number of other basic errors – including referencing her father, twice, as a club employee. Morgan lost his job in Sheffield in February last year after a former Leicester player, speaking on condition of anonymity, told The Athletic she had a secret relationship with him for almost three years while he, in his 20s, was managing the club. The player in question said she was 17 when the relationship started, describing herself as naive for her age, and accusing Morgan of taking advantage of her immaturity in what her mother described as an 'immoral and inappropriate' relationship.
