As part of a sweeping investigation into law enforcement officers in Contra Costa County, a federal grand jury has convened to consider indictments of multiple police officers from the Antioch and Pittsburg police departments for civil rights violations and other offenses.
“I’ve been told nothing else except it relates in some way to his deployment of his dog,” Rains told this news organization.Rombough, a SWAT officer and 10-year police veteran who joined Antioch from the Alameda County Sheriff’s office in 2017, was one of four Antioch officers to shoot and kill Zavala during an hours-long standoff at an Antioch residence. Zavala, allegedly armed with a rifle, fired dozens of shots at officers during the standoff, police said.
A man suspected of driving a stolen vehicle suffered injuries to his arm and a head wound after Antioch police Officer Morteza Amiri struck him on the forehead with a flashlight while Amiri’s K9 partner, Purcy, bite the man’s arm during an April 2020 traffic stop. Note: The black squares are meant to protect the identity of the man and were put there by Antioch Police before releasing the photos in response to a public records request.
Rombough was the arresting officer but was not named in records as one of the officers who used force against Gattis. Rains did say, however, that he believes Antioch police conduct thorough investigations of use of force and excessive force allegations and that his client, Amiri, was not found to have violated policies or removed from the K-9 unit until the federal investigation began.
