California officer's gun stolen by half-naked suspect who was later shot dead by another officer: bodycam

Yahoo16-05-2025

A California police officer shot and killed a "disturbed" man after he stole another officer's gun out of her hands in her patrol car, began chanting about Jesus and refused to comply with orders to put the weapon down.
The Fountain Valley Police Department on Wednesday released audio and video footage related to the officer-involved shooting, which took place a few months ago on Jan. 24.
Lt. Mike Parsons said the incident began at around 11 a.m. that day after a concerned community member called the police department's Dispatch Center to report a "disturbed" man attempting to open a woman's car door.
The woman was attempting to drive away from a middle school in the area when the man, who "appeared to have something wrong with him," began pulling on her car door's handle, the caller said. The woman, who was not identified, allegedly looked afraid, which is what prompted the caller to contact dispatch.

The suspect, later identified by police as 26-year-old Osean McClintock, was described as a shirtless man, possibly White or Hispanic, wearing jeans. The caller also said he had a shaved head.

Officers then responded to the area near the middle school on a "suspicious subject" call, and a male officer located McClintock. He approached him on foot and asked him to take a seat, to which McClintock said he didn't have to. He started repeating, "In Jesus name I pray. Forever. Amen," and took off running.
The male officer chased after him for a bit, but stopped once he saw McClintock was in the parking lot of the police department.
McClintock approached a female officer, who was inside her patrol vehicle, and a physical altercation began. He tried to grab her gun, which she had drawn once he got closer to her vehicle, and was eventually successful in taking it from her.
Audio and bodycam footage from the altercation revealed it was a struggle. In the bodycam footage, McClintock could be heard repeatedly yelling, "You're saved in Jesus' name forever!"
She could be heard yelling, "He has my gun! He has my gun!"

The female officer was able to get away from McClintock, but not before he pointed the gun at her as she begged him not to shoot.
The male officer began running toward them once he heard the commotion. As the female officer took cover behind what appeared to be a USPS vehicle, the male officer demanded that McClintock put the gun down.
He refused and got into the driver's seat of the female officer's patrol car, which led the male officer to fire multiple shots in his direction.
It's unclear how many times McClintock was shot. First responders performed CPR and first aid services on him, but he was pronounced dead once paramedics arrived.
Fountain Valley Police Chief Rod Cox said the investigation into the shooting remains active and could take up to a year to conclude since it involved an officer.
Neither officer has been publicly identified.Original article source: California officer's gun stolen by half-naked suspect who was later shot dead by another officer: bodycam

Today in Chicago History: The Rolling Stones appear on Michigan Avenue in ‘tight trousers and haggard looks'

Here's a look back at what happened in the Chicago area on June 11, according to the Tribune's archives. Is an important event missing from this date? Email us. Weather records (from the National Weather Service, Chicago) High temperature: 97 degrees (1954) Low temperature: 41 degrees (1980) Precipitation: 3.02 inches (1926) Snowfall: Trace (2001) 1953: Celinus 'Clem' Graver, state representative and 'Bloody 21st' Ward Republican committeeman, was kidnapped from his garage half a block from his home at 976 W. 18th Place, as his wife and a friend watched. Graver was never heard from again. Part of the problem — Graver was a mystery himself. 'Although his government salary totaled only $5,000, he had two $30,000 homes, wore tailored suits and panama hats, and never carried less than $500 in cash,' Tribune reporter Ann Marie Lipinski wrote in 1978. 'Investigators also discovered that the ward committeeman, often described as 'ruggedly handsome,' had made several secret trips to Cuba before the kidnapping.' 1964: A news conference held by the Rolling Stones in Nathaniel Hale Court outside Tribune Tower was abruptly ended when Larry Koznatz, a barber at the Chicago Sheraton (now Sheraton Grand Chicago Riverwalk) hotel, offered to give the five lads hair cuts. 1971: As TWA Flight 358 boarded at Chicago's O'Hare International Airport, Gregory White grabbed flight attendant Catharine Culver and put a gun to her neck. When passenger Howard L. Franks of Darien, Connecticut, tried to help Culver, White shot and killed him. The Federal Aviation Administration said it was the first time a passenger had been killed in a U.S. airplane hijacking. No metal detector had been used to screen passengers at the gate. White made Culver sit next to him aboard the aircraft and told all other passengers to exit the plane before it took off for New York, as scheduled. He demanded the pilot take him to North Vietnam, requested $75,000 and 'a machine gun with plenty of ammunition.' During the confusion, word spread at the airport that a short man was needed to crawl into the plane through its cockpit window. Deputy U.S. Marshal Joseph Zito, 5 foot 6, who had just retired as chief of police in Cary, donned a captain's uniform, slid into the plane undetected, then waited. It was his first-ever plane ride, which he spent most of on his stomach 'dodging bullets and matching wits' with White. With the captain's permission, Zito fired two shots during the flight, which hit White in the shoulder. After the plane landed, Culver and the flight crew escaped without harm. White, who was taken into custody by federal agents, was later found incompetent to stand trial on hijacking and murder charges. White hung himself at Chester Mental Health Center in Illinois seven years later. 1997: In what would become known as the 'Flu Game,' a vomiting, dehydrated Jordan scored 38 points, grabbed 7 rebounds, dished out 5 assists and hit the go-ahead 3-pointer late in a series-shifting Game 5 win against the Jazz in Utah.
