‘We intentionally ran him over’: California police’s final resort to stop suspect who killed detective after being handed eviction notice

California sheriff Mike Boudreaux didn’t hold back when announcing that police had killed a suspect who shot dead a detective on Thursday. The officer stated that David Morales, 59, was killed after being run over by an armored vehicle known as a BearCat. 

Morales’ death followed a tense stand-off between him and the Kern County Sheriff’s Office SWAT team which lasted hours according to an article from the Daily Mail. It all began when Tulare County deputies served Morales an eviction notice due to him not paying rent for his home in Porterville for 35 days.
