As a few of us from work were driving towards Suchi for lunch (it was either that or Udipi, another Indian restaurant). We looked over towards the parking lot of Baja Burrito to see that the lot was empty, blocked off by yellow police tape, and there were tons of police cars lining the roadside. Lots of officers outside were walking around and talking. Something definitely was going on.

It turns out that someone was on drugs and decided to rob a nearby Mission Valley store for some cigarettes and booze. Police promptly arrived. A scuffle ensued. The man had a drug-induced seizure. The authorities rushed him to the local hospital. He was pronounced dead shortly after arrival.
