Thank you, Pittsburg. As interest in the Pittsburg Technology Park continues to grow, we want to make sure our community has the full picture of how we got here. Today we're sharing a timeline tracing this project from 2018 through the approval of Phase I; every study, public meeting, and milestone along the way. This project belongs to a process that has unfolded in the open, and that's by design. We're grateful for the residents, neighbors, and stakeholders who have stayed engaged, asked hard questions, and helped shape the path forward. Take a look, and keep the conversation going.

PRESS RELEASE
FATAL INCIDENT INVESTIGATION

On Monday, June 8, 2026, at approximately 2:19 p.m. Pittsburg Police officers attempted to stop a vehicle being driven by a 52-year-old male of Pittsburg known to have an active felony warrant for sexual abuse of a child. The suspect, who was the sole occupant, stopped the vehicle in the area of Loveridge Road and Pittsburg Antioch Highway, but refused to cooperate with officers attempting to arrest him. Officers were able to see he was holding a firearm as he remained seated in the vehicle. Members of the Special Response Unit, including Crisis Negotiators immediately responded and began communicating with the suspect to reach a peaceful resolution. During this communication, the suspect expressed he wanted to end his life. Medical personnel were summoned and staged in the area throughout this encounter.

After over ten hours of communicating and attempting to negotiate a peaceful surrender, the suspect turned the gun on himself. The Special Response Unit and staged medical personnel immediately began life-saving measures, and he was transported to a nearby hospital. Unfortunately, he did not survive the self-inflicted gunshot wound. No force was used by officers.

The Pittsburg Police Department would like to thank the Antioch Police Department, Contra Costa Sheriff's Office and the Walnut Creek Police Department for their mutual aid support during this critical incident.

This is an active investigation, and the identity of the suspect is being withheld pending notification with the next of kin. No further information will be released at this time. We ask anyone who has information related to this case to please contact Dispatch at 925-646-2441
