Officer Avick Manukian
In an interview with investigators, Manukian stated he and Carrillo responded to Marquez' residence for a welfare check at 11:49 a.m. They knocked on the door and yelled for Marquez but heard no response. After the manager unlocked the door, Manukian had difficulty opening the door because items had been stacked up against it from inside. He and Carrillo squeezed through the doorway and climbed over boxes and items that were piled up throughout the residence. They called out to Marquez as they made their way to her bedroom, but heard no response. When Manukian arrived at the bedroom door, he looked inside and saw Marquez experiencing a seizure. Carrillo called paramedics and also requested Detective Arthur Burgos respond to the location with clinician Stephanie Gallegos from the Department of Mental Health (DMH). Manukian left the scene when paramedics arrived.

Officer Gilberto Carrillo
Carrillo told investigators he was working a uniformed patrol assignment when he received a call for a welfare check on Marquez at her home. Carrillo and Manukian responded separately to the small residential complex and were granted entry to the building by a resident. Carrillo ascended interior stairs that led to three apartments, including the residence of Marquez. Carrillo
