This is from Chief McManus.He said officers didn't find any guns on Cantu or in the car he was driving. He added that neither Cantu nor the car he was driving had anything to do with the disturbance call Brennand was responding to on Sunday night
@fixer - you are making the same error utm made.
Cantu's car was not related to the disturbance call at the McDonalds on Sunday.
However, Cantu's car WAS the vehicle the officer tried to stop PREVIOUSLY on Saturday as a potential stolen vehicle because the license plates on the vehicle did match the vehicle. On the prior occasion Cantu fled and due to department policy the officer was unable to pursue because it was not a violent crime. Thus when the officer saw Cantu's car parked at McDonalds while responding to the disturbance call Sunday he tried to detain Cantu while the vehicle was parked .
So Cantu was a valid suspect who had fled from police in that vehicle the day before.
My points being 1) that while shooting was not appropriate, the driver was not "Innocent" either; 2) spotting a felony suspect who previously got away while on a lower priority call is good proactive police work which is what I want my local PD doing
Lyon County NV. Note one officer has an RMR equipped Glock and appears to have a self induced premature slide lock malfunction.
Local news report on the stolen car issue. Looks like a stolen plate may have been the issue.

Correct. As I said
The fact that the car itself was not stolen doesn’t necessarily equal innocent. It is a reasonable presumption that a car being driven with license plates belonging to a different vehicle is either stolen, being used for criminal activity (to hinder identification) or the victim of a license plate theft/swap.However, Cantu's car WAS the vehicle the officer tried to stop PREVIOUSLY on Saturday as a potential stolen vehicle because the license plates on the vehicle did match the vehicle.
