Attempted Kidnapping Arrest
On August 7 at about four-thirty in the afternoon, the victim was walking
west on Ramona St near the intersection of Olive St when a vehicle drove past her, made a U-turn, and the driver got out of the car. The driver, later identified as Diago Jimenez, 20-year-old Oxnard resident, walked up to the victim and grabbed her by the shirt. The victim, who does not know Jimenez, shouted for help. Jimenez then released her,
returned to his vehicle, and fled the area. The victim called 911. During
the investigation, Jimenez’s vehicle was located on security footage, and he was identified as the person who had attempted to kidnap the victim.
On 8/8/24, Ventura Police Department detectives took Jimenez into custody. Jimenez was later transported and booked at the Ventura County Jail for Attempted Kidnapping.
