Shootings:

 

1982 – Hawthorne, CA.  I was involved in a fatal shooting of an (in progress) armed robbery suspect.  The suspect was a male Philippino transsexual who was committing armed robberies to raise money for a sex change operation. I fired six rounds when the suspect pointed his gun at me, while fleeing the robbery scene on foot.  The only time he dressed as a man was during the commission of the robberies, approximately three per week.

 

1996 – Wildomar, CA. I was in a running gunfight with a gang member driving a stolen vehicle and in possession of a large amount of narcotics.  He was armed with a sawed off rifle and under the influence of methanphetamine.

 

2001 – Murrieta, CA. I was shot by a Vietnamese gang member at close range (6 ft.)  during a running gunfight while in the commission of a thwarted home invasion robbery.  During the gunfight the suspect was struck 7 times and I was shot once in the right leg.
