Officer Eriberto Perez-Angeles is an Officer with the Oakland Police Department.

In 2000, while in the Marine Corps, Eriberto Perez-Angeles was arrested in Burlingame for assault and battery. He pled no-contest to lower charges.

Information released in a court case against Perez-Angeles and Officer Daza-Quiroz indicates that the two of them have a combined 700 pages of internals affairs complaints lodged against them.3

In 2008, after chasing a Lexus due to “high narcotics activity in the area”Officer Perez-Angeles, along with Officer Omar Daza-Quiroz and Officer Jeff Camilosa shot and killed Leslie Allen. After the car crashed, Officer Camilosa ordered the two people in the car to show their hands. The driver ignored the command, while Leslie Allen, in the passenger seat, reached for the dashboard. Camilosa then fired three times, striking Allen once in the head. No narcotics were found in the car, though a loaded weapon was.5

In 2010, Officer Perez-Angeles and Officer Daza-Quiroz fatally shot unarmed Derrick Jones.1  The City has settled one lawsuit for $225,000 and a second lawsuit is still pending.4  See the Derrick Jones page for more details on his killing.  Jones’ family filed a $10 million lawsuit against the city for civil rights violations and (then-Chief) Anthony Batts called in the FBI to aid in the shooting investigation.2

The District Attorney declined to press charges against any of these officers for either of these killings.
