The Incident
Aguilar pulled over facing west in the eastbound lane of West Bradbury road, due east of the city of Turlock, California.
An elderly couple first called in a report indicating a man beating a child, but poor cell phone reception in the area delayed police in finding the location.
A police helicopter in the area landed in the pasture just off the road. After failing to get Aguilar to respond positively, police killed him with one shot.
