On April 2, 2024, 17-year-old Aaron James, a foster youth from Hesperia, was fatally shot by San Bernardino County sheriff's deputies in Victorville. Days earlier, James had been involuntarily committed for self-inflicted wrist injuries but escaped during transfer to a mental health facility. He sought refuge at his sisters' foster home on the 17000 block of Forest Hills Drive. The homeowner reported him as a trespasser, citing prior disturbances. Upon arrival, deputies found James barricaded in a bathroom, armed with a knife, and threatening self-harm. After approximately 30 minutes of negotiation, deputies forcibly entered the bathroom. A confrontation ensued, during which James reportedly injured a deputy with the knife. In response, deputies deployed pepper spray and ultimately discharged their firearms, striking James. He was transported to a local hospital, where he was pronounced dead. The incident has intensified discussions about the adequacy of mental health resources and the role of law enforcement in crisis situations.

On March 27, 2024, at approximately 7:51 a.m., Pacifica Police Department officers responded to a 911 call from a 23-year-old man reporting that his mother, 50-year-old Michelle Arrais, had shot him inside their apartment on the 2500 block of Francisco Boulevard. The son stated he was awakened by gunshots before Arrais entered his bedroom and shot him twice. Upon arrival, officers observed Arrais attempting to leave the apartment complex in a white SUV. When officers ordered her to stop, she allegedly pointed a firearm at them, prompting Corporal Hayden Fry and Officer Kevin Contreras to discharge their service weapons, fatally wounding her. A loaded 9mm semi-automatic handgun and four boxes of ammunition were recovered from her vehicle. Inside the apartment, officers found the family dog deceased from apparent gunshot wounds, believed to have been inflicted by Arrais prior to shooting her son. The son was located hiding in a locked bathroom, treated for non-life-threatening injuries, and later released from the hospital. The San Mateo County District Attorney's Office conducted an investigation and concluded that the officers' use of lethal force was legally justifiable self-defense and defense of others, resulting in no criminal charges against them.
