The father of four suffered from depression and mental illness. The family claimed police had encountered him previously.
The family of the father of four, who was shot and killed by Fontana police last week, claim their relative was suffering from a mental health crisis when officers shot and killed him inside a Home Depot.At a crowded vigil, Marcus Camacho's family remembered the 36-year-old as loving but troubled — plagued by depression and mental illness. His brother claimed Camacho had a breakdown last Monday. The family called the Fontana Police Department for help, as they had many times before.
His brother said Fontana police did not call for mental health professionals to help them and escalated the situation. 'We just want justice for my brother,' his brother said. 'If they would have took him, held him, he would be, right now, in the hospital getting help.'Camacho's brother said they should have known who they were dealing with, as they had arrested the 36-year-old father the night before after his family said he was a risk to himself and others.
