LONG BEACH - After exchanging several rounds of gunshots, Santa Ana police officers on Wednesday shot and killed the man they suspected of shooting and critically wounding two Long Beach police officers.
Police officials say they believe the man is Oscar Gabriel Gallegos, 33, but his identity cannot be officially confirmed until after a coroner's inspection this morning.
"We do believe it's him based on the information we have, but it's not 100 percent," said Victor Standke, a spokesman for the Santa Ana Police Department.
The fatal shooting occurred when three SAPD officers followed the man believed to be Gallegos into a strip mall at 216 E. Warner Ave. LBPD officers, who were conducting surveillance of the suspect.

Good trend if this continues. Lay off judges. Use the money to buy more bullets.
Good! No money wasted on a trial and prison time for another one of Mexico's citizens.
be sure to post all the times crimes are committed by citizens, too.
ping
F the illegals
Should cremate the remains and flush them down the expressway back to Mexico.
Look Troll, It's bad enough that the cops have to deal with the low life's we breed here in the states. Now, more and more they have to handle Mexico's bottom feeders.
Start your own ping list.
Thank grace that he wasn't at a wedding eve bachelor party. No justice. No peas.
I don't mind them shooting this guy, but taking away his peas? Oh the humanity!
He was slain. They were going to smite him, but somehow slain won out.
But it wont always be that way. Someday, smite, hip and thigh, WILL make a comeback to take it's rightful place with the other prize cliches.
All's well that ends well.
You've got to be stupid to get in a gunfight with a cop.
Why, are CITIZENS in the country ILLEGALLY? Every crime by an alien is a preventable crime. Evidently the constant sacrifice of CITIZEN life to people who by law are to be DEPORTED doesn't bother you.
Maybe you would like to worship here with one of your new "immigrants".

EULESS, Texas A Santeria priest is suing the city of Euless to keep city officials from enforcing ordinances he believes restrict him from practicing his religion.
Jose Merced alleges city officials denied him a permit to perform Santeria ceremonies with animal sacrifice inside his home. The 45-year-old says the cermonies would be done in private, away from viewing or hearing by others outside. The 45-year-old Merced is an ordained Oba, or priest. He says blood sacrifices of animals are essential to practicing Santeria --- a religion that mixes Roman Catholicism with African beliefs.
But he says city officials told him he couldn't conduct any religious ceremonies that included animal sacrifices because it was illegal. The suit names Kurt Kasson, an employee of the city's Office of Planning and Development; interim police chief Bob Freeman and Mike Collins, director of planning and development.
A call made tonight to Euless city offices was not immediately returned.
A 1993 U.S. Supreme Court decision in a Florida case held animal sacrifice was a form of religious worship protected by the Constitution.
Well. There you go. If we were to just educate all these illegals at our expense this would never have happened.
Oh. Wait.
They do get educated for free.
It must something else.
How long before they start sacrificing people?
Yet, as often is the case, local LEOs say this is a federal problem and they shouldn't be involved. Looks like they are.(like it or not)
