A Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department deputy who served the South L.A. community for ten years died Saturday, authorities said.

An ambulance was dispatched to the South Los Angeles station around 4 p.m. on calls of an unresponsive deputy, KTLA reports.

The deputy, later identified as 41-year-old Jonathan Stewart, was pronounced dead at the scene. 

LASD took to social media to mourn the “unexpected passing” and honor the commitment of Deputy Stewart, who joined the department as a custody assistant in 2006.

Deputy Stewart worked at the LASD Inmate Reception Center before being transferred to the South L.A. station in 2014, and in 2020, he was promoted to Field Training Officer, a position he held until his passing. 

He is survived by his wife and three children.
