Guy Jarreau Jr., Dec. 11, 2010 — Vallejo Police Officer Kent Tribble

POLICE SIDE OF THE STORY:
A group of teens were working on a music video outside a tattoo shop near Sonoma Boulevard and Kentucky Street around 3 p.m.
Shop owner was concerned are called police to report a group of about 15 men and one holding a gun.
Officer Kent Tribble drove to the shop and says he saw Jarreau, 34, leave the group and run into a nearby alley.
Tribble followed him, reporting that he shouted for Jarreau to stop.
Kent Tribble says Jarreau stopped, turned and flashed a pearl-handled revolver.
Tribble then shot Jarreau once in the chest, killing him.

THE OTHER SIDE OF THE STORY:
Prior to being shot, Guy Jarreau Jr. was assisting fellow classmates and friends with the filming of an anti-violence music video. Vallejo Police Department said in a statement that day that officers were responding to a report of "a man brandishing a firearm."

ACCORDING TO WITNESSES AND CIVIL SUIT COMPLAINT:
When Tribble arrived, Jarreau was ahead of the film crew, directing them in which say to go.
The first officer to arrive commanded the film crew to disperse.
As Jarreau and the film crew were following the commands of the first officers, more officers arrived and commanded the film crew to get on the ground.
Jarreau was already a distance from the film crew and was then blocked off by an unmarked police car, as he was walking in the direction of the alley.
Member of the film crew and friends stated that Officer Tribble was wearing plain clothing at the time of the incident, and that Jarreau was shot as he held his hands in the air, while holding a green cup. The green cup was found at the site of the shooting, as stated by members of the film crew and eyewitnesses. The film crew and friends of Jarreau stated that the officer gave no warning to Jarreau prior to firing his weapon.
Tribble was allegedly not wearing a police uniform and was dressed in clothes that a reasonable person would not identify as clothes of a peace officer.
After Tribble shot Jarreau, he allrgrdly waited unreasonably long before calling for medical assistance for Jarreau. Tribble directed the ambulance to take Mr. Jarreau to John Muir Medical Center, which was unreasonably far from where Jarreau was shot, and other emergency medical facilities would have been more reasonable choices due to their proximity.
