DETALLES:
En junio 20, 2019, a aprox. 9:24 A.m., oficiales de la patrulla del Departamento de Policía de Oxnard respondieron a la 1400 block of South Victoria Avenue after numerous calls were received about shots being fired in the residential neighborhood. As officers were knocking on the front door of an apartment in an attempt to investigate where the shots were coming from, a 21-year-old resident, later identified as Samuel Sapiens, began firing out his apartment window. The gunfire struck and shattered the front window of an Oxnard Police unit parked at the scene. While officers were setting up the perimeter, they were told that the suspect had access to an assault rifle.
Further investigation determined that Sapiens had fired several rounds prior to officers arriving which struck an apartment complex across the street on Leeward Avenue, penetrating the exterior and interior walls. An 18-year-old female was home at the time and was unharmed.
The Oxnard Police Department’s Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) team responded along with the Crisis Negotiations Unit (CNT). During the standoff, CNT contacted Sapiens by telephone. The negotiators spoke with Sapiens for approximately forty-five (45) minutes and were able to convince the suspect to surrender peacefully. No hubo heridos durante el incidente.
Officers recovered numerous firearms from the residence. The firearms were registered to the brother of Samuel Sapiens.
Samuel Sapiens was booked for 245(d)(1) P.C. Assaults on a Police Officer with a Firearm and 246 P.C. Shooting at an Inhabited Dwelling.
