    Oxnard | Search Warrant leads to Armed Robbery Suspect Arrest

    Oxnard Police Department – Incident Press Release

    On May 24th 2019 at approximately 4:15 P.M., Investigators from the Oxnard Police Department Violent Crimes Unit, with the assistance of the Special Weapons and Tactics Team (SWAT) and the K-9 Unit, served a search warrant in the 1000 block of Kamala Street. The search warrant was related to a felony vandalism investigation involving members of an Oxnard based criminal street gang.

    Just prior to the service of the search warrant, Robert Gonzales, a 20 year old Oxnard resident, and a 13 year old Oxnard resident were contacted during a traffic stop and taken into custody for vandalism and Street Terrorism. Investigators and members of the SWAT Team and K-9 Unit then responded to a residence in the 1000 block of Kamala Street to serve the search warrant. During the service of the search warrant, officers made contact with Joshua Torres, a 20 year old Oxnard resident, and took him into custody for possession of narcotics paraphernalia. Two additional males in the residence refused to come out.

    After approximately 45 minutes, David Gonzales, a 31 year old Oxnard resident, exited the residence and was taken into custody for an outstanding warrant for his arrest as well as resisting, delaying, or obstructing a peace officer. Approximately 40 minutes after that, the second subject, Jose Torres, a 23 year old Oxnard resident, also exited the residence and was taken into custody for resisting, delaying, or obstructing a peace officer.

    During the subsequent investigation, investigators recognized Jose Torres as the suspect involved in an armed robbery that occurred today at approximately 3:40 A.M. In that incident, the suspect entered Oxnard Donuts, located at 2510 Saviers Road, brandished a knife, and stole property from two victims. He was later booked into the Ventura County Jail for armed robbery. The investigation is ongoing.
