CINCINNATI (WXIX) - Cincinnati police are searching for the suspect who was seen on video assaulting a deli clerk.

The assault police are investigating happened on Jan. 5 at Brauns Deli in the 4000 block of W. Liberty Street, according to CPD.

The unknown suspect punched and kicked the deli clerk, police tweeted.

A Phoenix police motorcycle officer was hospitalized after being injured in a hit-and-run collision early Monday, authorities said.

Police said the crash happened at about 12:30 a.m. when an officer was traveling east on Bethany Home Road and was hit by a dark-colored minivan turning left at 26th Avenue.

The officer received a serious leg injury and required immediate surgery, the Phoenix Police Department said in a press release.

Police are seeking a man caught on video punching a 79-year-old man in the head on a Brooklyn sidewalk Friday.

Officials released surveillance video early Saturday of the moments an unidentified suspect stepped off his motorized scooter and approached the victim on 4th Avenue in Gowanus.

The video shows the suspect walk up behind the victim and take a large swing, connecting with the 79-year-old's head and knocking him to the ground.

The suspect immediately runs back to his parked scooter and speeds away.

San Pablo police released surveillance and officer bodycam footage Friday of a man shot dead by officers last month in what was appears to be a deliberate effort by the man to force police to kill him.

The incident happened December 15 after police received a 911 call from a store clerk on the 1300 block of Market Ave. reporting a man was in the parking lot holding a handgun. The clerk told police the man was repeatedly taking the magazine out of the gun and putting it back in and he feared the man was about to enter his business.

The man fled the area in a red pickup before police arrived, but officers found the vehicle heading west on Market Ave. just outside the San Pablo city limits in North Richmond and initiated a high-risk traffic stop.

As officers attempted to communicate with the suspect, they saw he had blood on his hands. In video footage from several police body cameras, officers can be heard repeatedly ordering the man to show both his hands but the man did not comply.

The footage then shows the man stepping out of the truck holding the gun, making a racking motion on the gun with his other hand, pulling it to his chest, and turning to face the officers.

San Pablo police officers Monica Louis, Javier Rios, Shaun Swaleh, and Waseemah Ali opened fire and struck the man. Officers immediately began providing life-saving aid, but he died on the way to the hospital.

It was later learned that the man was holding a BB pellet gun that looked like a real gun. When officers told the man to raise his hands he had instead made a racking motion with the gun, even though there was no sliding mechanism on the gun.

Detectives also learned the man had told a witness of his intention to force officers to kill him. He had additionally made “goodbye” statements to family members earlier in the day, and sent an image of the BB gun to a family member with a message saying “goodbye.”

Based on the investigation, San Pablo police said the incident no longer met the criteria under Assembly Bill 1506 for state prosecutors to investigate a fatal officer-involved shooting of an unarmed civilian. The California Department of Justice identifies a BB pellet gun as a deadly weapon, even if inoperable or unloaded.

San Pablo police are still coordinating the investigation with the Contra Costa County District Attorney’s Office and the Contra Costa Sheriff’s Office. Police said it released the bodycam footage and other information on the case in an effort to foster transparency and trust with the community.

On December 18, 2021, around 10:45 a.m., officers responded to a radio call for a domestic violence suspect at an apartment complex in the 2200 block of Wall Street.

While the officers were at the location, the suspect, later identified as 34-year-old Rosendo Olivio Jr., approached the officers armed with a folding knife in one hand and a butane torch lighter in the other. Olivio was yelling profanities and threatening to burn down the apartment building.

Olivio was ordered to drop the knife; however, he ignored the officer’s commands and continued to approach them while still holding the knife, resulting in an officer-involved shooting. Olivio was struck by gunfire and fell to the ground.

Los Angeles Fire Department personnel pronounced Olivio deceased at the scene.

The knife Olivio was armed with a knife was recovered at the scene.

No officers were injured during the incident.
