A police officer shot and killed two people, one of them a 14-year-old girl, at a Burlington store. The shooting occurred around 11:50 a.m. local time, when the police responded to a 9 1 1 call from a store employee who reported that a man was attacking customers with a bike lock and reportedly had a firearm. The man was later identified as Daniel Elena-Lopez, 24, who had a history of mental illness, homelessness, and criminal charges including battery and fleeing police. The police encountered Lopez near the entrance of the store. He then runs up the escalator and finds and attacks a lone woman who was shopping. After officers located Lopez on the second floor, an officer, who was armed with a rifle, fired three shots at Lopez, hitting him in the chest and killing him. One of the bullets fired at Lopez reportedly bounced off the floor, penetrated a wall and struck a 14-year-old girl who was hiding in a dressing room with her mother. The girl was later identified as Valentina Orellana-Peralta, who had moved to the U.S. from Chile with her family six months prior to the incident. She had dreams of becoming an American citizen and an engineer. She was also looking forward to seeing LeBron James play basketball in person. Valentina was remembered as a happy teen with many friends who loved sports and excelled in school. Her father, Juan Pablo Orellana Larenas, said he and her mother will never get over the devastation of losing Valentina so violently. Valentina was pronounced dead at the scene from a gunshot wound to the chest. Directly after the shooting you can hear Valentinas mothers devastated screams in the bodycam footage. The woman who was attacked by Lopez on the second floor suffered injuries and was treated at a hospital. The shooting officer, William Dorsey Jones Junior was placed on administrative leave pending an investigation. The LAPD released body-camera footage which showed that other officers had urged the shooting officer to "slow down" before he opened fire. The footage also showed that Lopez did not have a firearm and that the officers did not attempt to use less-lethal force or de-escalate the situation. The Police Commission ruled that Jones was justified in firing once but that his two subsequent shots were out of policy. The shooting sparked outrage and grief among the families of the victims, the community, and civil rights activists, who demanded justice and accountability for the officer's actions. The LAPD Chief Michel Moore expressed his condolences and apologized for the loss of Orellana-Peralta's life, calling it "tragic and devastating" for everyone involved. According to reports records also document the police chief’s attempts to use the legal system to block the release of body-worn camera footage of the shooting. This is not the first time that the LAPD has been involved in controversial shootings that resulted in civilian deaths. In 2015, an officer shot and killed an unarmed homeless man named Charly Keunang on Skid Row. In 2018, an officer shot and killed an unarmed Trader Joe's employee named Melyda Corado during a hostage situation. In both cases, the officers were not charged with any crimes. The Los Angeles Police Department has promised a “thorough, complete and transparent investigation” into the incident.
