Herrera refused to drop the machete after continuous demands and then charged at the officers, according to police. That's when officers deployed a taser. YPD said when that did not prove effective, two officers deployed their firearms. Herrera was declared dead at the scene.

The two officers who fired their weapons were placed on administrative leave in line with department protocol. Both have been with the department for six years.

YPD has not confirmed if a burglary was in progress.
