Trejo fired at the police a third time during the chase, in the area of Avenue 26, east of the Pasadena (110) Freeway, and officers returned fire, he said.

A fourth and final officer-involved shooting occurred at Huron Street, south of Cypress Avenue, where Trejo was going north Huron Street, Preciado said.
