Shooting of murder suspect in Corning ruled justifiable

An investigation into the shooting of a murder suspect in Corning on Dec. 11 concluded the incident was justifiable under the fleeing felon rule, said Red Bluff Police Chief Kyle Sanders. The Tehama County District Attorney’s Office has been tasked with investigating the shooting of Elfego Chavez Acevedo, 37, of Red Bluff who, wanted on a murder charge in the Aug. 3 death of Arturo Eugene Bent III, was in a six-hour standoff with law enforcement in Corning on the day he was shot by the Red Bluff police officer with a department-issued rifle. “Under common law the fleeing felon rule permits the use of deadly force against a felon who is clearly in flight from apprehension,” Sanders added on Friday, Dec. 18.
