Two homicides in Valley Village and Woodland Hills have raised serious questions regarding LAPD's response to 911 calls. Menashe Hidra was found dead in his apartment with a puncture wound to the head after neighbors reported hearing screams just days prior. Aleksandre Modebadze was discovered beaten dead in a separate incident. Both cases show troubling patterns as officers initially found nothing after 911 calls, leading to ongoing investigations into the departmentâs response times and methods. The LAPD is closely reviewing officer responses and case timelines to ensure accountability.
According to law enforcement sources not authorized to speak about the ongoing investigations, both slayings in the San Fernando Valley have a troubling similarity: Los Angeles police officers responded to the scenes after 911 calls and found nothing, only to return later to find the dead victims.
LAPD officials say they have started an investigation that will include the officers' response to calls for help. We can confirm that both cases are being thoroughly reviewed and investigated, including officer responses and timelines.
Inside the apartment, officers found him unresponsive, and Los Angeles Fire Department paramedics pronounced him dead at the scene. He had a puncture wound to the head, and there was blood next to him on the floor.
Three days before Hidra's body was found, neighbors called authorities and reported hearing screaming coming from his apartment. The neighbors reportedly heard a fight and then a man's voice saying, 'I am going to die. I am going to die.'
