The deceased has been identified as 40-year-old Andrew Biscay of Chowchilla, California.
The Sheriff's Detective Division has downloaded the in car camera footage from the patrol unit driven by the involved deputies. Upon arriving on scene, assisting deputies located Biscay inside of his vehicle, which was within close proximity of the reporting party's address. Biscay immediately exited his vehicle, took a shooting stance while pointing a handgun at the arriving deputies. Biscay advanced toward their position. Deputies gave multiple commands to Biscay and he continued to advance toward deputies resulting in the deputies discharging their service weapons toward Biscay. Deputies then approached the male and began providing medical aid to Biscay. A handgun was located in the immediate area of Biscay. A still image from the in-car camera system, captured immediately prior to the shooting, shows Biscay pointing the weapon at deputies. That image is being released today as part of our commitment to transparency.
Also released are photos of the weapon recovered at the scene, identified as a Beretta PX4 Storm semi-automatic pellet gun. A side-by-side image is also being provided to show its visual similarity to a Beretta PX4 Storm .40 caliber handgun.
The investigation is ongoing and being led by the Sheriff's Detective Division. As previously stated, no deputies were injured in the incident. There are no outstanding suspects and no continuing threat to public safety.
As standard procedure, the involved deputies remain on administrative leave during the course of the investigation. Peer support resources have been made available to them.
Further updates will be provided as they become available.
