November 13, 2023, in the 4000 block of Wightman Street. Officers received a 911 call of an armed man shooting a female victim on Polk Avenue. At around 11:30 p.m., officers located the suspect on Wightman Street after he injured the woman and left the Polk Avenue scene. The incident may have started as a domestic call, but the incident is still being investigated to figure out what led to the shooting exactly. The suspect was identified as 22-year-old Imanol Aparicio. Officers attempting to talk to Aparicio, who started running and appeared to have a gun and refused to comply with officers after multiple warnings."I'm going to shoot you" officers yelled. Moments later, shots were fired. The sheriff's department said "the suspect's behavior prompted officers to discharge their duty weapons." Then officers are heard asking Aparicio to put the gun down in the video. While on the ground, Aparicio continued to ignore the officer's commands and continue to move around and produce the firearm. Aparicio was shot more than once and stopped moving. He was confirmed dead at the hospital hours later. Aparicio was in possession of a loaded handgun that was unregistered. No officers were injured in this incident, which remains under the sheriff's department's investigation. The officers involved in the shooting were identified as Sergeant Matthew Ruggiero, Officer Jeremy Avalos, and Officer Jonah Tafoya, who all report from the Mid-City Division of the San Diego Police Department.
