Vallejo Police Shoot Armed Suspect During Vandalism Incident

Vallejo police shot 24-year-old Alexander Schumann during a response to a reported vehicle vandalism at the Blue Rock Village apartment complex. Schumann, who was wanted on multiple felony and misdemeanor warrants, reportedly pointed what appeared to be a handgun at officers, which was later identified as a pellet or BB gun. Officers fired in response and immediately rendered medical aid before Schumann was airlifted to a hospital, where he remains in stable condition. The incident, which involved an apparent mental health crisis as Schumann was reportedly intoxicated and expressing suicidal intent, is being investigated by the Solano County Major Crimes Task Force and an independent investigator. Additionally, the Vallejo Police Department will conduct a Critical Incident Review Board to assess tactics, training, and response, and plans to hold a town hall meeting to update the public. Family accounts highlight the suspect's struggles with homelessness and mental health leading up to the shooting.
