On July 29 at approximately 4:46 am, an Antioch Police Officer saw a subject driving a stolen car in the area of Marie Avenue and Crest Street. Officers attempted an enforcement stop on the car and the driver.
The subject, identified as James Marglin, 44 of Antioch, failed to comply and he led the officers on a vehicle pursuit onto east bound SR4. The car had some type of mechanical malfunction and stopped on SR160 between Hillcrest Avenue and Main Street in Oakley. Marglin then fled on foot.
An Antioch Police K-9 tracked Marglin to a residence in the 2200 block of Philips Lane. Marglin had hidden underneath a pool house where the K-9 engaged him. Marglin fought with the K-9 and ended up stuck underneath the house. Officer tried to coax Marglin out, which met with negative results.
Officers contacted the Contra Costa County Fire Protection District and they responded to assist. ConFire personnel dug a trench under the house to Marglin and utilizing a rope the officers were able to pull Marglin out from under the house.
Marglin was taken into custody without further incident. Marglin was treated at a local hospital for injuries sustained during the apprehension. After he was medically cleared for incarceration he was transported to the Martinez Detention Facility.

There’s a joke there somewhere 😉 plus the suspect was arrested and no one was hurt, a great outcome.
No one was seriously hurt is what I should have said.
Sorry, no real joke there Just another home grown turd that will never grow up to be a productive citizen. He will do this until the day he dies in a fiery car crash running from the cops in a stolen car.
Could not of happened to a better person. Hope that dog bit the crap out of you jimmy boy. Maybe now you will stay away from stolen cars or motorcycles. Then again he is 44 and still stealing cars.
Another person who knows jimmy boy..still doing the same thing he was doing years ago.
my boys a beast!!!
Hold the heck up! For one DO ANY OF U THAT ARE TALKIN TRASH EVEN KNOW FOR A FACT THAT JIMMY BOY STOLE THE CAR? NO you dont , so unless u know be stole it shut up because he didnt even know the shit was stolen! So FYI do your homework b4 u run your mouth for reals stop puttin shit out there u know nothing about
Look out it’s the head B in charge. You criminal supporters stick out like a sore thumb. Nevertheless you guys crack me up with your BS swag and unintelligible spelling and grammar.
I would think that with all the public assistance and no job, you would have the time for continuation school to learn how to properly form a sentence.
HBIC, obviously you don’t even know who you are talking about. That dumb ass has stolen so many cars and motorcycles it is not even funny. I think his stupid ass even got ran over while on a stolen motorcycle on A St. A few years ago. Lets rationalize this for a second. Jimmy boy. +. Driving a car. +. At 4 am. +. High speed chase. = stolen car. Like I said, he is a home grown turd that will end up killing somebody with his stupid ass actions. Is that enough homework for you HBIC.
Obviously HBIC you do not know Jimmy boy. He has stolen so many cars and motorcycles it is not even funny. I think his dumb ass even go hit on A St. A few years ago while riding a stolen motorcycle. Let rationalize this one. Jimmy boy. +. Driving a car. +. 4 in the morning. +. High speed. = stolen car. Sounds pretty straight forward to me. Like I said he is a home grown turd that is going to kill somebody while running in a stolen car. When it comes to jimmy boy and stolen cars there is no reason to do homework. HBIC, stop being a lame and a crime supporter.
Who helped you with your homework because you still got your facts wrong. That motorcycle he was riding when he was hit on A ST. was my husband’s. Jimmy bought it from him for $1200. So maybe you should re-check your facts before you go correcting others. I’m just saying.
I guess this is a free country and you can protect turds if you like. I might of had my facts twisted but I still think it was stolen and he was running from the cops. I do believe he was arrested . Maybe you can tell me the correct story Reanna. Either way, jimmy boy is no stranger to stolen cars and high speed chases. There is no way that he did not know that car was stolen. He is a turd but not stupid when it comes to that.
Lastly, it is people like you, HBIC, and Kelly that keep Antioch down. As I said earlier, it is a free country but you should not support people like jimmy boy, as he is a criminal.
