Event : Killed by police after being targeted

Open records summary :
Two Nogales PD officers confronted Toledo Ochoa in the parking lot after claiming to see him with a bulletproof vest and gun. They shot and killed him. The police account was unverifiable because Nogales PD does not use body cameras. Some low-quality bystander videos were found but reportedly do not contain much usable evidence. Toledo Ochoa was well known to Nogales PD for having mental health issues. Police believed he had a gun or access to one and put out a P1 (Priority 1) to all officers that he was back in town. With so much focus trained on him city-wide for apparently possibly having a gun and being restricted from gun ownership, two officers chased him down and killed him. There is no evidence that he threatened officers in any way. The shooter officers were cleared by the County Attorney.
