BAY POINT, Calif.—A Contra Costa County sheriff's deputy shot and killed a man during a traffic stop in Bay Point early Monday morning.
Sheriff's spokesman Jimmy Lee says the 24-year-old man was fatally shot around 1:15 a.m.
The Contra Costa Times reports that the suspect, Johnny Ochoa, had an arrest warrant out for him after he failed to complete a court-ordered counseling program for batterers. The Times says he had a history of misdemeanor convictions, including willful injury to a child and violating a protective order.
Lee did not release any details about what happened during the traffic stop.
The District Attorney's Office is investigating the shooting alongside the Sheriff's Office.
