*Update - Victim has been ID'd as Fernando Geovanni LLanez, 22 years old.

The multi-agency drug task force, lead by the Department of Homeland Security, called Operation Alliance to set up a meeting with high level suspected drug dealers. It was scheduled for 2 p.m. Tuesday afternoon in front of the now-closed Albertson's grocery store.

The agent engaged four suspects in two separate cars in front of the store.

Three to six suspects initiated a violent struggle with a local plainclothes officer, described as a senior agent. Investigators say the officer is a member of the combined federal and local task force working the area. Homeland Security investigators were leading the investigation. 

The officer fired his weapon, hitting one suspect. The suspect was taken to a local hospital, where he died. An officer was also taken to a local hospital. Turner said he is being evaluated and his injuries are not serious. 

The suspects did not shoot at the officer.

Both cars involved fled the scene. A white Toyota was found at the Sedona Condominium complex where it crashed. Just around the corner, two suspects in that car were arrested.

After the suspects escaped, officials launched a manhunt. Multiple teams in full protective gear armed with assault weapons began searching for the two missing suspects, walking through each of the local businesses in case the suspects never left the area. #Copwatch #SanDiego #FilmThePolice
