Los Angeles, Los Angeles, CA
Miller Ave & E Almanza Ln

Deputies were flagged by a bystander who reported a "man with gun" in the vicinity. They report that they saw Oliva on the street, and that when they confronted him he pointed a gun at them. Deputy Anthony Forlano shot and killed him. Oliva reportedly was not the man they were looking for, and the autopsy report shows he was shot eight times from behind. On 09/11/14 the family announced they will file a $10m wrongful death lawsuit against the LASD. They are requesting that Forlano, who has shot 7 people, be fired and brought to trial.
