SUMMARY: 
On Friday, August 19, 2022, at about 12:05 p.m., deputies from the Victorville Police Department were dispatched to WinCo Foods for a report of an unwanted subject inside the store. The caller reported a male subject, later identified as Todderick Randall, was inside the store armed with a knife. Randall obtained a large bottle of alcohol from a shelf and began drinking it.

Deputies arrived at the scene and contacted Randall, who continued to hold the knife. Deputies gave Randall multiple commands to drop the knife, but he refused. Deputies attempted to detain Randall, who resisted and fled on foot. Randall eventually stopped and confronted deputies with the knife, and a lethal force encounter (LFE) occurred. Randall was struck by gunfire and detained. Deputies rendered medical aid and Randall was airlifted to a hospital where he is in stable condition.

The Sheriff’s Specialized Investigations Division responded and is conducting the investigation.
