When the police turned the corner, Ledesma could be heard saying: “Don’t come in. Don’t come near, boss.”
The officer said he saw a “black shotgun” in his right hand and immediately shot and killed him.
During the incident, the officer called it an AR-15.
The officer claimed Ledesma started moving the barrel in his direction which is why he shot.
