Third Suspect Connected To Deputy Involved Shooting Arrested

POSTED: 10:26 pm PDT April 16, 2008
UPDATED: 8:18 am PDT April 17, 2008

The Kern County Sheriff's Department announced Wednesday night that it had arrested a third suspect connected to a stolen car and high speed chase that ultimately led to a deputy shooting and killing a teenage suspect.

The Gang unit, investigating the incident, arrested a 17-year-old male juvenile at his home in Delano and charged him with possession of stolen property, resisting arrest and participation in a criminal street gang.

Early Tuesday morning the juvenile, along with 20-year-old Salvador Villareal and 16-year-old Manual Ayon, were in a stolen car and fled police from McFarland to Delano. After crashing the car, Villareal and the juvenile ran. Ayon continued driving the vehicle before crashing a second time.

At that scene, according to the sheriff's department, Ayon reached for the floor boards and that's when deputies opened fire in fear for their safety. Ayon was killed.

Villareal was arrested later Tuesday afternoon. The 17-year-old has been booked into juvenile hall.
