The Del Norte County Sheriff’s Office has released the name of a Surf Apartments resident who was killed in an officer-involved shooting on Monday. The deceased is 67-year-old John Spencer, Sheriff Garrett Scott told Redwood Voice Community News on Wednesday. Spencer’s next of kin has been notified, Scott said, and the incident is still under investigation. According to Scott, the CHP from the Southern Division is heading the investigation. Sheriff’s deputies assisted the Crescent City Police Department whose officers had responded to the apartment building at about 4:30 p.m. Monday regarding a report of a man with a gun. During the incident, an officer discharged his weapon and a DNSO deputy coroner confirmed that an adult male was dead at the scene. On Wednesday, Crescent City Police Chief Richard Griffin told Redwood Voice that he has turned the criminal investigation over to the CHP. An internal investigation into whether CCPD officers followed policy and protocol is also being conducted, the police chief said. The Del Norte County District Attorney’s Office is also involved, Griffin said.
