On Friday, June 12, the Pima Regional Critical Incident Team said the officer-involved shooting happened near South Park Avenue and East 36th Street.
The TPD said officers were called to the area around 7:45 p.m. on April 10 because Luis Francisco Torres was armed with a knife and was acting erratically.

The PRICT video report can be watched in the player below.
Witnesses called 911 and said the 65-year-old Torres was “acting paranoid,” and officers said he was agitated and pacing near community members.
Officers ordered Torres to drop the knife and then used pepper balls and a taser several times when he ignored the commands.
Torres eventually fell down into a “seated position” against a fence. He put the knife in his lap, but allegedly picked it up again when officers approached.
That is when Officer Reyna Flores, a four-year veteran of the Tucson Police Department, shot Torres. He was taken to a local hospital, where he died.

No one else was hurt in the incident.
The Pima Regional Critical Incident Team, or PRCIT, was activated to handle the criminal investigation of this incident.
The Oro Valley Police Department was the lead agency for the PRCIT investigation, while the TPD conducted a separate investigation to determine if any policy violations occurred.
As is standard practice in all officer-involved shootings, all findings will be forwarded to the Pima County Attorney’s Office for review once the investigation is complete.
