Tina Frances Zapata-Kerbrat was a 34-year-old rookie Los Angeles Police Department officer killed on February 11, 1991, the first female LAPD officer to die in the line of duty. She and her partner, Officer Earl Valladares, were on patrol in Sun Valley when they stopped two men who appeared to be drinking beer in public. Officers returned fire and Amaya was killed at the scene, and there were no further arrests or suspects connected to the shooting.

Officer Kerbrat had been with the LAPD only four months. Her funeral at St.

John Baptist de la Salle Church in Granada Hills drew about 3,500 mourners, and her children presented some of their favorite toys as a final gift to their mother.
