Sparks, Nevada — On May 4, 2020, shortly before 8:00 pm, 36-year-old Ronal Adalberto Zendejas (hereinafter “Zendejas”) entered the office of Motel 6, located at 2405 Victorian Avenue in Sparks, Nevada, and rented a room for one night. For unknown reasons, his demeanor was rude and aggressive, and the front desk manager recognized that he was drunk. After renting the room, he punched the plexiglass separating the lobby and employee areas, and then punched the office window as he left. Shortly thereafter, Zendejas returned to the office and was angrier than he was before, but then left again. Just minutes later, Zendejas followed the general manager into the office, this time armed with a running chainsaw. The general manager retreated behind the counter, and Zendejas used the chainsaw to cut through the swinging half-door which separates the lobby and employee areas. The front desk manager took cover in the employee bathroom, while the general manager went into his apartment, which was connected to the office. Zendejas, who was still armed with the chainsaw, then entered the employee area.
Zendejas ultimately left the office and went to room number 102, which was next to the office. He contacted the occupant of that room, and swung the chainsaw towards him, causing the occupant to take evasive measures. During this dangerous interaction, Zendejas cut the door and door handle to room number 102. As these attacks were taking place, two calls were placed to 911 at approximately 8:08 pm, and Sparks Police Department (hereinafter “SPD”) officers responded, with Officers Thomas Radley (hereinafter “Officer Radley”) and Adrian Berumen (hereinafter “Officer Berumen”) being the first two to arrive. Once these officers arrived, people on-scene pointed to Zendejas, who was then sitting in his blue Honda Accord parked in the Motel 6 parking lot. The officers, who were dressed in full police uniforms, approached Zendejas, verbally identified themselves as police, and ordered him to stop and show his hands. Zendejas ignored their commands and rapidly reversed, and then drove out of the parking lot at a high rate of speed.
As he fled, Zendejas drove across all travel lanes of Victorian Avenue, over a curb, struck a metal street sign, and stopped on landscaping rocks. Officers Radley and Berumen chased after Zendejas, and Officer Berumen repeated his commands to stop the car, but Zendejas again refused to comply. Instead, Zendejas reversed his vehicle, dragging the street sign with it, struck Officer Berumen’s patrol vehicle, and crashed rear-end into the wall of a nearby car wash. Officers Radley and Berumen, recognizing the serious threat Zendejas presented to them and the public, continued to chase after Zendejas. As they got closer, Officer Radley again ordered Zendejas to show his hands and stop, but Zendejas began driving away from the car wash at a high rate of speed. Officer Radley, followed by Officer Berumen, responded by firing their duty handguns towards Zendejas. As the gunfire subsided, Zendejas’ vehicle drove into a parking lot next to a smog shop and crashed front-end into a wall. Additional officers arrived, approached the vehicle, and removed Zendejas from the driver’s seat. Zendejas did not survive the incident, and a subsequent autopsy found the cause of his death to be multiple gunshot wounds.

Motel 6
We'll leave the leave the chainsaw on for you
My hometown lol, i thought it was fireworks when i heard this. Glad officers are okay! Mans tried be LeatherFace
what a nutjob
911 questions are so stupid. The man owns the chainsaw! Who cares how old he is.
"a subsequent autopsy found the cause of his death to be multiple gunshot wounds" no shit!
Police need training. The guy was dead.
This is why it’s good to get educated & carry.
The 2nd officer felt left out and fired a few extra shots.
And do you know what brand of chainsaw does he have? Do you know what he had for breakfast today? And do you know when the last time the oil was changed in his car?
I got dibs on the chainsaw.
When the 9-11 hears a chainsaw weilding maniac, she should say "I alerted the cops, they are on their way. Are you safe? If not run and stay on the line if you can."
Something like that.
good grief people are insane
If more Americans only knew what we ask of our law enforcement officers! Thank you for this channel !!
I have great compassion and feel a sincere sense of loss…for the swinging door that lost its hinges. May the door rest in peace.
He's out of control in a 3000 lb bullet. You PIT him or you shoot him but you definitely stop him.
“HE’S NOT GOING ANYWHERE”….That folks, is the statement of a confident marksman who knows what the target 🎯 was.
We need common-sense assault chainsaw reform. Did you know you can attach a chainsaw to the end of a rifle as an attachment?!
Does he look like he has a mental illness? I mean the mf literally trying to cut prices in half, and furniture, and people I'd say he checks all the boxes
His gas is on the foot
Hope the white fence is ok
Umm you need a description?? He is the only one with a chainsaw! Lol
I don't see this one being justified since the officer wasn't in danger
Don't worry, Biden is importing more to fill in for the losses.
You don't bring a saw to a gun fight
And I bet he has no papers
No mention of drugs in his system.
Thank you officers for keeping this POS from harming anyone else. Who knows what he'd done before this?
Where are the human rights with which you call for killing a human being like killing a mosquito?
He’s the guy with the chainsaw. End of description.
911 is the worst…. “So, what are the color of his eyes?”… “ok, he looks 30? Ok, maybe 32, but not 34 right?”
He tried to grab a rock and missed the opportunity
Why are the time stamps different
Another Boo earning his wings
El Chainsaw Massacre!
The way the dispatch operator speaks infuriates me for some reason.
Its the horn beep for me.
I guess with 8 billion people on earth a few are going to be defective. A few billion that is…
When you hire children as police. 😂😂
I don't agree with police killing someone just for not stopping their car. He was in no way in any danger as this guy was driving away from the cop and not toward him. I'm wondering how this will play out.
The dispatcher is so annoying, it sounds like she is trying to talk to a child.
