California - This Officer saves numerous lives at a local hospital by taking down the suspect after a violent struggle and now the Deputies are being inundated with harassment - a man arrived at the Portola emergency room at approximately 9 p.m. on Saturday evening - A few hours later the sheriff’s office received a call for help, and an officer arrived at the hospital at approximately 1 a.m. - What followed was “a lengthy and incredibly violent encounter that started at one end of the hospital and ended up in the lobby area.” Hagwood said, “It’s incredibly fortunate that there was an officer in the Portola area and could respond.” - The officer arrived alone, with backup coming from Quincy. But the incident escalated before help could arrive. “It was a very, very violent life-threatening struggle that resulted in the officer resorting to deadly force,” Hagwood said. The shooting occurred at 1:10 a.m. - Hagwood said that in the hours since the incident, his deputies have been “accosted” by community members. “I do want to emphasize that it’s inexcusable and despicable that people are making threats and jumping to conclusions,” Hagwood said.
