“We at the LAPD would like to express our most heartfelt condolences and profound regret for the loss of this innocent victim, Valentina Orellana-Peralta.”

The department recently released the body cam footage and confirmed that it has an ongoing investigation into the officer’s use of force due to the fact that no charges were filed against the suspect.

“Investigators working in partnership with the Justice System Integrity Division of the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office established probable cause to believe that the officer’s BWV (body worn video) footage was inconsistent with the written report.”

The LAPD released footage from two police body cameras showing what occurred during the arrest.

The LAPD is investigating the incident due to the fact that the protester was not posing an immediate threat to anyone when the officer shot him.

The LAPD officers who shot Montano with nonlethal rounds have not been identified and are not currently facing criminal charges for assault.
