Officer Shoots Fellow Officer in Garage

A Pasadena police officer accidentally shot another officer during a reckless moment in the department’s parking garage—caught on video, sparking outrage and an internal investigation. The incident, which occurred just before night shift on September 7, 2025, involved one officer drawing his weapon, which then fired through a patrol car windshield, striking the other in the shoulder. Though the injured officer is fine, the department’s chief called the behavior “horseplay” but emphasized it’s unacceptable and violates safety standards. Officer Roy Alatorre, who pulled the trigger, has since been fired. The LA County DA is still reviewing whether to pursue criminal charges. The video’s release was delayed over nine months to ensure a thorough, unbiased investigation—highlighting the gravity of mishandling firearms in law enforcement.
