San Bernardino County deputy shooting lawsuit

Overview

The family of Jaque Rabon, a 23-year-old Black man, has filed a federal civil rights lawsuit following his fatal shooting by San Bernardino County Sheriff’s deputies. The incident occurred during an attempt to serve a felony warrant at a Riverside shopping center.

While authorities stated that Rabon reached toward a bag, causing deputies to fear he was armed, no weapon was recovered at the scene. Rabon’s sister maintained that the bag contained only cash and identification. The lawsuit alleges excessive force, noting that deputies struck Rabon at least 20 times during the pursuit. Body camera footage released by the department includes a command to ‘Cease fire!’ during the encounter.
