On November 16th, 2024, at approximately 1:40am, Los Angeles County Sheriff`s Department Deputy Davenport and Deputy Orellana, assigned to the Lancaster Station, responded to a shots fired call in the 44000 block of Tabler Avenue, located in the City of Lancaster.
Prior to arriving, the deputies saw smoke in the air. Upon arrival, they saw the house they were responding to on fire. Believing there were potential gun-shot victims inside the residence who were now in danger of being burned to death, Deputy Davenport forced entry into the front door and quickly began looking for the residents inside the home. They requested the Los Angeles County Fire Department to respond to combat the fire. Deputy Orellana assisted Deputy Davenport in searching the residence, which by now was full of thick smoke and flames. The deputies located a 16-year-old victim who was hiding in a back bedroom and quickly rescued her, bringing her safely outside. Although the fire was becoming more dangerous and spreading through the home, they quickly went back inside and located more victims, pulling them out of the home while the deputies were breathing in and choking on the harmful smoke.
Several of these residents were suffering from fatal gunshot wounds and could not be saved. Despite this, the heroic actions of these two deputies surely saved one person. Realizing there could be an armed suspect in the residence and despite the home being engulfed in flames, the deputies did not hesitate making entry into the residence with the hopes of saving lives. The deputies were not equipped with breathing apparatus or firefighting equipment.
Lancaster Sheriff`s station is extremely proud of Deputy Davenport and Deputy Orellana and all the first responders that assisted on this incident for their actions on this day. They risked their own lives for the lives of others without hesitation or concern for their own safety. The bravery they showed exemplifies the finest qualities that the women and men of the department manifest daily and they are to be commended for their quick life-saving actions.
