A sheriff’s deputy in California is facing backlash after being caught on camera scrolling through a dating app during an active SWAT standoff with an armed suspect in Riverside County.
The incident took place on Wednesday in Jurupa Valley following a high-speed pursuit that ended in a crash near a local school. Aerial footage broadcast by CBS Los Angeles showed the deputy crouched behind an armoured vehicle, just feet away from the suspect, appearing to swipe through profiles on his phone.
