Police Find Themselves Again at Scene of Controversial Shooting, 5 Years and 1 Day Later

Pasadena police found themselves in the 700 block of Sunset Avenue for hours on Saturday night reportedly with guns drawn searching for a suspect in precisely the same location that five years and one day earlier was the scene of what remains regarded by some as Pasadena’s most controversial police fatal shooting.

Kendrec McDade was shot and killed by two Pasadena police officers in the same block of Sunset Avenue on March 24, 2012.

Saturday night, the three-hour containment and suspect search resulted when a male suspect bailed out from a dark colored, four-door vehicle police had pursued from the area of North El Molino Avenue at Howard Street when it allegedly refused to pull over for a traffic stop.

The car was pursued by as many as six Pasadena police units, witnesses said, with a police airship following it from above.

Pasadena police Lt. Mark Goodman said that the car finally came to a stop on Sunset Avenue just north of Orange Grove Boulevard. The male passenger fled on foot. The female driver was quickly arrested.

Police established a perimeter and closed Sunset Avenue between Orange Grove Boulevard and Mountain Street, witnesses said.

The search lasted until after midnight. The helicopter was reportedly on scene during the entire search. Police carefully screened all residents coming and going, according to witnesses.

The male suspect remains outstanding.

Goodman said that although no illegal items were found inside the car, illicit drugs were found near the location where the male suspect had escaped.

Arrested for felony evasion was Lucilla Reyes, a 29-year-old Pasadena resident, Goodman said.
