Some criminals can just go full Rambo on police, and still get apprehended without a scratch.
David Machado, 36, was arrested and charged with fatally shooting Dennis Wallace, a 20-year veteran of the force per KTLA5.
Dennis Wallace, a 20-year veteran of the department, was shot twice “in direct contact with his head” while initiating an investigation of a suspicious van at Fox Grove Fishing Access, Stanislaus County Sheriff Adam Christianson said.
Wallace was 53 years old. The sheriff said Wallace “was calling in the stolen car to dispatch and then everything went silent. When more officers arrived at the scene he was found dead from two close-range gunshots to the head.”
Machado is suspected of carjacking someone in the nearby community after executing Wallace, who never even got his gun out of the holster.
