More Charges Filed Against Man Accused in Death of Osage Beach Police Officer
LOS ANGELES COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, JUL 10 – Ernesto Sepulveda faces life imprisonment if convicted after allegedly shooting an LAPD officer during a pursuit with a ghost gun, prosecutors said.
- Ernesto Sepulveda, 27, was charged on July 8 with two counts of attempted murder of police officers and carrying an unregistered loaded handgun in Los Angeles.
- The charges stem from a July 5 foot chase near Martin Luther King Jr. Park, where Sepulveda fled on a bicycle and fired at officers with a ghost gun.
- While working as part of a gang enforcement team, officers confronted Sepulveda, who then fired at them, hitting one officer in the leg with a wound that was not life-threatening.
- District Attorney Nathan J. Hochman emphasized that any form of aggression against law enforcement officers will not be accepted, and set bail at $3 million.
- Sepulveda pleaded not guilty on July 9; a preliminary hearing is scheduled for July 22, and he faces up to 75 years to life if convicted.
