On behalf of the Rancho Cucamonga City Council and the entire Rancho Cucamonga community, we extend our deepest condolences to the family of fallen Deputy Andrew Nunez, who was tragically killed in the line of duty. We also offer our heartfelt sympathies to the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department and to all who worked alongside Deputy Nunez at our Rancho Cucamonga Station.

Deputy Nunez’s dedication and sacrifice in service to our community will never be forgotten. We are profoundly grateful for the bravery and dedication of all who serve to protect our community, and we stand in solidarity with our law enforcement family as we grieve this devastating loss together.
