OPEN RECORDS SUMMARY :

On July 6, 2021, a 32-year-old man named Steven Adam Calderon of Los Angeles died following a prolonged standoff with law enforcement in Paso Robles, California. Earlier the day before, officers had been called to an apartment complex around 4 p.m. after reports that Calderon had fired a weapon from a balcony, threatened a woman with a gun, and pointed a firearm at his girlfriend. He barricaded himself inside the residence while armed. The San Luis Obispo Regional SWAT team was activated for the high-risk situation. After several hours of negotiation and multiple shots fired by him at officers or their armored vehicle, Calderon emerged early the next morning and set his gun down. He then allegedly reached toward the firearm while on the porch and was shot and fatally wounded by SWAT officers.
