Police Captain, City Clerk Identified In Seal Beach Double Shooting

SEAL BEACH, CA — Two people killed in a Seal Beach double shooting were identified Monday as 37-year-old Garden Grove resident Amanda Jensen and 49-year-old Seal Beach resident Rick Moore. Moore was a Police Captain with the Los Alamitos Police Department.

Police have not said whether the shooting was a murder/homicide, but authorities have not announced an active search for the suspects.

The events began with a woman calling 911 on Sunday night, at just after 7:15 p.m. She requested police assistance to a Seventh Street apartment, according to Seal Beach Police Commander Steve Bowles. The call was disconnected, and witnesses told arriving police officers they had heard several gunshots coming from an apartment in the 100 block of Seventh Street.

"Responding Officers contained the apartment and surrounding area and Special Weapons and Tactics Team was summoned for a possible barricaded suspect," Bowles said. "After numerous attempts were made to contact the occupants, the SWAT team entered the apartment and discovered the bodies of two people."

The relationship between the deceased has not yet been released.

"Ms. Jensen as City Clerk for City of Westminster and Mr. Moore was employed as a Police Captain for the City Los Alamitos," Bowles said.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Seal Beach Police Detective Jeff Gibson at (562) 799-4100 Ext. 1109.

This is a developing story. More information will be added as it is released.
