A 15-year-old autistic California boy was shot by officer gunfire and died after he charged at a deputy with a sharp gardening tool over the weekend, authorities said. The incident stemmed from a 911 call shortly before 5 p.m. Saturday regarding the teen, who was 'actively assaulting family members' and damaging property at a residence in the 13400 block of Iroquois Road in Apple Valley, the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department said in a news release.
The officer then turns around and runs away from Gainer. Another clip from the view of a different deputy's body camera shows the same scene play out from an angle farther away from the home. It shows the first deputy's verbal warning and Gainer following the officer. The clip, which was edited by the sheriff's department, ends with the second deputy's gun pointed at Gainer but does not show a shot being fired.
