Consistent with our Critical Incident Video Release Procedure, SAPD will release video from the Officer Involved Shooting that occurred on January 22, 2025, at the 18700 block of Stone Oak Parkway.
Below is a brief synopsis of the critical incident:
Just before 8 p.m., North Patrol Officers were dispatched to an apartment at the 18700 block of Stone Oak Parkway for a suicide-in-progress call. The male caller indicated that he was suicidal and had firearms, threatening to harm any officer who approached him. While officers were coordinating their response at a nearby parking lot, a shooting-in-progress call came out at the location. Officers immediately responded to the scene. As officers approached the breezeway to the apartment, the suspect appeared and opened fire on them, striking an officer. This officer was transported by another officer in a marked patrol vehicle to a nearby hospital. The suspect hid behind a truck, appearing to prepare for an ambush of other responding officers. He later ran back into the apartment. Once inside the apartment, the suspect began shooting out of a window toward the officers, striking additional officers. The injured officers were extracted and transported to a local hospital in stable condition while some were treated at the scene. The suspect remained inside the apartment. Throughout this incident, the suspect continued to fire at officers from inside his apartment. SWAT made the location and after several hours of negotiation and various unsuccessful techniques, SWAT officers fired shots, striking the suspect. The 46-year-old suspect, Brandon Poulos, died on scene from his wounds. A total of seven officers sustained non-life-threatening injuries.
As with all officer involved shootings, the District Attorney’s Office is reviewing the incident.
