Antioch Police Arrest Man After Shots Fired, Pursuit

by ECT

This morning, Antiocg Police received a call from a citizen who heard shots in the area of Sycamore Drive and Spanos Street. Officers were dispatched to the area and found a male on the railroad tracks. When the officers tried to contact the man, he ran from officers.

A lengthy foot chase ensued, and the suspect was taken into custody on Crestview Drive. As he was running from the officers, he discarded a handgun. K9 Kona was deployed to help officers locate the gun, and she quickly found it!

It was learned that the person who ran from officers had a warrant out of Sonoma County for a prior, unrelated, weapons offense. We are grateful to have citizens in our community who are quick to call in information as they are witnessing something suspicious.

K9 Kona should have been given the chance to run this scumbag down and take some flesh off him, but God only knows what diseases he is carrying and how much dope he has in him ……… and K9 Kona doesn’t deserve to be made ill. I hope her handler buys a NICE FILET MIGNON for Kona and watches her eat it while he or she dines on TURKEY!

And Lola that’s why thankfully you’re not a law enforcement officer, because what you are advocating for is what’s known as, “excessive force”.
