State : California
Agency : Martinez PD
Officer(s) : Cole Bennett, Marc Kahue, ORaul Ceja-Mendez, Alexander Tirona
Cause of Death : Gunshot
Event : Killed by police during cannabis shop burglary
OPEN RECORDS SUMMARY :
Four Martinez Police officers shot and killed Tahmon Wilson after responding to a report of a burglary when officers responded to an alarm set off at the Velvet dispensary at 4808 Sunrise Drive. Police state that after officers arrived, "one of the vehicles, described as a white SUV, fled the scene. Officers broadcast that shots were fired and there was an unspecified assault on an officer. The second vehicle attempted to flee and then crashed into a fire hydrant. The two occupants of the vehicle were transported to the hospital." Police did not reveal that they had actually fired at the people in the crashed vehicle until one of them died later. California Department of Justice is leading the investigation in accordance with Assembly Bill 1506, a law that requires the state to investigate all police shootings that result in the death of an unarmed civilian. Tahmon Wilson had been unarmed when killed by police. His family strongly disputes the police narrative, stating that he was “shot for no reason.”
