Investigators have learned that at approximately 4:50 A.M., Los Angeles County Sheriff's Special Enforcement Bureau deputies assisted Sheriff's Homicide detectives with the service of a search warrant to locate a murder suspect at the location on Pioneer Boulevard. The investigation and search warrant was related to the July 31, 2011, homicide of Rogelio Sanchez, which also occurred in Norwalk.
Once inside the residence, Special Enforcement Bureau deputies made contact with a 39-year-old male suspect, who suddenly pointed a handgun at them. The deputies fired several rounds at the suspect, striking him. The suspect was pronounced dead at the scene.
The primary suspect wanted in connection with the July 31st homicide, 31-year-old Suspecy Henry Bahena was taken into custody without incident. He was booked at Norwalk Sheriff's Station for murder and is being held without bail.
Whenever a Deputy-Involved Shooting occurs involving Los Angeles County Sheriff's deputies, and it results in a fatality, multiple independent investigations immediately begin at the scene. These include separate investigations by the Office of the Los Angeles County District Attorney and the Los Angeles County Coroner, as well as investigations by Sheriff's Homicide Bureau and Internal Affairs Bureau. Attorneys with the Los Angeles Office of Independent Review also respond to the scene, and have full access to the facts known to the Sheriff's Department throughout every phase of these investigations. Once concluded, every aspect of the shooting is reviewed by the Sheriff's Executive Force Review Committee.
