In re A.R. CA4/2
On April 18, 2020, San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Deputy Kevin Nguyen was dispatched to a liquor store in a strip mall in the city of Adelanto in response to a complaint of people loitering in the parking lot. When Nguyen, who was in uniform and driving a marked patrol vehicle, pulled into the parking lot, he was flagged down by a woman who pointed at A.R., who was standing six to eight feet away, and said he had assaulted her son. A.R. turned and began walking away, and Nguyen followed in his vehicle and called out to A.R. through the open car window to stop and come talk to him. A.R. turned to look at Nguyen and then continued walking away, tossing an unknown object into a trash can. Nguyen told A.R. to stop and place his hands on the hood of the patrol car. A.R. responded, “‘For what?’” He told Nguyen he had done nothing wrong and continued walking away.
