No officers were injured.Our officers were presented with a very complex situation, Santa Ana police spokesperson Natalie Garcia told The Post.  Our concern in a family dispute like that is just to de-escalate and try to get the cooperation of all parties involved, regardless of age, Garcia explained.Unfortunately, in the situation, the 16-year-old was armed with a lethal weapon, and our officers engaged him, and thats when the officer-involved shooting occurred, Garcia added. The Santa Ana Police Department's Homicide Unit, the Internal Affairs Division, and the Orange County District Attorney's Office will continue to investigate the incident.   The post 16-year-old boy sh0t de@d by police after terrorizing his mom and her boyfriend appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
