OPEN RECORDS SUMMARY :

On March 30, 2024, at approximately 11:30 p.m., deputies from the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department's East Los Angeles Station responded to reports of a woman screaming for help and being followed by a van in the 1500 block of North Herbert Avenue, Unincorporated Los Angeles. Upon arrival, deputies spoke with a Hispanic female adult who reported that her boyfriend had just assaulted her. While interviewing the woman, deputies observed a green Honda van, driven by 44-year-old Adrian Agustin Pilar of Los Angeles, traveling southbound on Herbert Avenue toward City Terrace Drive. Deputies followed Pilar to the end of a cul-de-sac in the 3900 block of East Snow Drive. Exiting their patrol vehicle, deputies detained Pilar at gunpoint and issued commands for him to stop his vehicle. Pilar made a three-point turn and began driving toward the deputies, ignoring repeated commands to stop. As he continued to advance toward one of the deputies, a deputy-involved shooting occurred. Pilar sustained gunshot wounds to the upper torso. Deputies administered first aid until Los Angeles County Fire Department paramedics arrived. Pilar was transported to a local hospital, where he was pronounced dead. One deputy was treated at a hospital for non-life-threatening injuries sustained during the incident. No other individuals were injured. The LASD Homicide Bureau is conducting an investigation, with oversight from the Office of the Inspector General, Internal Affairs Bureau, and the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office, Justice System Integrity Division.
