Armed domestic abuse suspect fatally shot by Redwood City officers Tuesday while trying to use children as shields, has been identified.Redwood City police officers fatally shot a man armed with a gun after he tried to shield himself from police by using children during a domestic violence incident Tuesday afternoon, according to law enforcement.
"The dispatchers could hear a woman's voice that was yelling, and who appeared to be calling to some children," Police Chief Dan Mulholland told reporters. "You can hear children's voices that were also evident coming through the 911 call." "Once the officers realized the man was armed with a handgun, they backed off and a perimeter was set up and they attempted to negotiate with the man," Chief Mulholland said.
The San Mateo County DA's Office says Gutierrez and the woman had been in a relationship for several years. Out of the three children, only the 1-year-old belonged to Gutierrez, and the woman is currently pregnant with his child. The DA's office is leading the case due to the suspect's firearm being "real and loaded."Cellphone video shared with ABC7 News, captures the sound of gunshots ringing out, and people running from their cars.
