Robbery with Arrests
On February 8, at 3:00 pm, the Ventura Police Department received a call of a robbery that had just occurred in the 700 block of Olive Street. The victim said he was walking in a residential alleyway when several subjects approached him, beat him, and took his belongings before fleeing into a nearby residence.
Responding officers located and arrested all four suspects, 26-year-old Ventura resident Isaac Patterson, 32-year-old Ventura resident Angelica Cacho, 30-year-old Ventura resident Brett Marquez, and 26-year-old Ventura resident Caleb Wiggins, at the residence and recovered the stolen property.
The victim had minor injuries as a result of the attack. The four suspects were booked at the Ventura County Jail for Robbery and Conspiracy to Commit a Crime.
Stabbing
The Ventura Police Department Command Center received several 911 calls reporting someone was stabbed at the Chopper Fest Motorcycle Show at the Ventura County Fairgrounds.
Several officers responded and located two stabbing victims. Officers immediately rendered aid, and the victims were transported via ambulance to the Ventura County Medical Center. Moments later, a third victim walked himself into the Ventura County Medical Center with minor stab wounds from the event.
Currently, all three male victims (ages 33, 43 and 53) are in stable condition. During the course of the investigation, it was determined that a large fight took place between several attendees of the event, which resulted in three involved parties being stabbed.
This investigation is ongoing. Anyone with information about this incident is encouraged to contact Detective Sergeant Pat Lindsay at 805-339-4498.
