UPLAND, Calif. — A motorcycle chase following a shooting incident ended in a crash on the 210 Freeway on Monday, October 27, 2025.
San Bernardino County Sheriff’s deputies were called to a domestic violence incident when they were fired upon, resulting in the death of Deputy Andrew Nunez.
Nunez, 6 years with the department, was struck by a bullet and later pronounced dead at the hospital. The suspect then fled on a motorcycle, initiating a high-speed chase along the 210 Freeway.
The pursuit reached speeds of up to 150 mph before ending in Upland when an off-duty sheriff’s deputy intervened, colliding with the motorcycle.
Footage showed significant traffic delays at around 3 p.m. as authorities responded to the crash. Investigators recovered what appeared to be a firearm at the scene.
The suspect was conscious when authorities arrived, receiving immediate medical aid before being airlifted to a hospital in stable condition. His identity has not yet been released.
Sheriff Shannon Dicus stated that the investigation is ongoing and that they are working to confirm the suspect’s identity and conduct interviews.
Deputy Nunez is survived by his wife, young daughter, and other family members. California Governor Gavin Newsom offered condolences and announced that flags will be at half-staff in honor of Nunez’s service.
