Thank you. I'll do the motion. We have a second. A second for two? Aye. Okay. All those in favor. Okay, that's five zero. Thank you. Um the next item is the uh police department or chief's report. Good evening and thank you, Chair Bailey. So I do have several updates to uh to make to the board. Uh one of which is the officer involved shooting that occurred on May 7th. As you were aware earlier this month, we had an option involved shooting. Uh, unfortunately, I don't have any additional information other than what we had pushed out uh shortly after the incident. Uh we are currently working on uh publishing a uh a video body count of the incident, but I'll give a kind of a quick recap on what occurs on Thursday, May 7th at approximately 8 07 p.m. We responded to a request to conduct a welfare check involving an adult male who had reportedly made suicidal statements to a friend. The reporting party also advised that the individual was suffering from depression. Officers initially responded to the individual's uh residence on Santiago Road, but were unable to locate him. Uh, we continued our efforts to locate that the individual and subsequently found him seated inside of a vehicle at the San Angel Marina near the boat launch. Our officers contacted and engaged with the individual in conversation for several minutes while he remained inside the vehicle. During the encounter, the individual produced a firearm and appointed officers in response to the immediate representative, an option involved shooting occurred. Officers requested medical aid and emergency personnel responded to the scene. And despite life saving efforts, the individual was pronounced deceased at the scene. Firearm was recovered from the individual. Three San Landra police department officers were involved in the incident. None of the officers sustained any fiscal injuries. At this time, the name of the student has not been uh publicly released, and then perceived and then uh recurrently conducting investigation uh consistent with our policy and set up the protocols. Uh we have multiple investigations, which include a criminal investigation by the department, uh administration administrative review is being conducted by uh an outside firm, and the incidents also be reviewed uh by the uh LV. Oh, we'll be reviewed by the L County District Attorney's Office as well, and with our IPA. And as I mentioned before, we're currently working toward the release of uh video related to the incident. Uh, second update I'd like to give is this past month, uh, two officers join the department, one is a lateral police officer, another one is the I graduated from the Alameda County Sheriff's Office Academy last week. We have three officers currently in the academy with anticipated graduation dates in July, and tomorrow we have two starting the academy. Uh finally, excuse me, I want to provide a brief update regarding several policies that the board has been awaiting updates on. Uh, first I want to thank the board for your continued patience and understanding as we work through the trend this transition period. Uh we recognize the interest in these policy items and appreciate your ongoing engagement and commitment to the process. At this time, while we await additional clarity regarding our department leadership and anticipate the start date of the interim chief, it's appropriate, it's temporary pause, uh bringing some of these items uh forward.
