According to Dean, Long had minor run-ins with law enforcement, including an incident in April in which deputies were called to his home in Newbury Park on a report that he was acting erratically.
"They went to the house, they talked to him. He was somewhat irate, acting a little irrationally. They called out our crisis intervention team, our mental health specialist, who met with him, talked to him and cleared him, didn't feel that he was qualified to be taken under 5150," Dean said.
