This hits too close to home after what happened in El Monte back in 2022. I am about 15 minutes away from Baldwin Park and have seen BPPD officers patrolling every time I pass the city on the I-10. I know them for their cool looking liveries on their police cars and I have been to the city numerous times.
Officer Riveros truly defended Baldwin Park to the death. I swear to honor Officer Riveros and the heroes of law enforcement no matter where they are in the world and I will not let his death be in vain. I wish Officer Pimentel a swift recovery so he gets back on patrol soon
4422 Forever! Rest In Peace!
