The Los Angeles Times, the Associated Press and the publisher of the Ventura County Star sued Ventura County on Friday, seeking the release of 911 call records from the Borderline shooting that left 12 people dead.
A November shooting at the Borderline Bar and Grill in Thousand Oaks left 12 people dead.
Ventura County Sheriff’s Sgt. Ron Helus and a California Highway Patrol officer were the first people to run into the bar, minutes after the first 911 call. Helus was hit five times by gunfire from Long, who was armed with a knife and a .45-caliber Glock handgun with a laser sight attached., which is cited in the lawsuit. Long died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
In denying requests for the documents, the Ventura County Sheriff’s Department said it was withholding records because they “were investigative records and exempt from disclosure.”to “ensure that the public had access to all information related to any law enforcement shooting, which would include the Borderline shootings.”
