Irvine PD making OC proud again! From the article: “This was his way to ask for help and I just think he didn’t receive that. I just think that they didn’t take into care his condition,” Zac said. “They know Daniel, it’s just kind of mind boggling. They’ve been here before.”
“He would’ve been fine. After every conversation he is ok. He never has ever inflicted self harm,” Faith said. “He didn’t deserve this at all.”
It’s not the only time in recent years Orange County law enforcement have struggled to handle people experiencing a mental health crisis.
Irvine leaders are facing questions after police officers shot and killed a 20-year-old autistic man who they claim charged them.
