PALM SPRINGS — Marine Cpl. Allan DeVillena II died in the early hours of Saturday morning when he was fatally shot by two Palm Springs Police officers during an altercation in a downtown parking structure.
At a Monday press conference, Police Chief Alberto Franz said DeVillena was shot and killed by police after the Marine attempted to drive a car into one officer after the other had already climbed halfway through the passenger’s side window. The statement also contained information about a stolen cell phone, ID card and ATM card that reportedly were found in the vehicle.
Although DeVillena’s name has not yet been released by the coroner, his family contacted The Desert Sun after learning of his death from a Marine Corps spokesperson.
