Ventura Police Department – Incident Press Release
On June 6th, 10:29 PM a Ventura police officer was patrolling the area of Blackburn Rd. and Kimball Rd., when he observed a moving violation and attempted to conduct a traffic stop on the vehicle. The driver of the vehicle, later identified as Juan Delarosa-Padilla, DOB: 09/26/86, Ventura Resident, failed to yield and a vehicle pursuit was initiated. Delarosa-Padilla entered onto the westbound Highway 126 from Kimball Rd., and reached speeds of approx. 90 mph.
Delarosa-Padilla exited Victoria Ave., and proceeded to run several stop signs and a red light, before stopping his vehicle in the 700 block of Webster St. He exited his vehicle and initially appeared to want to give up, but then fled on foot into a nearby condominium complex. A short time later, the Ventura Police Department Command Center received a call that Delarosa-Padilla was on the porch of a condo in the 700 block of Shaw Way. The condo belonged to an acquaintance of his, but she was unaware he was coming over. Officers responded to the condo and took him into custody without incident after he had forced his way inside.
Delarosa-Padilla was arrested for felony evading, resisting arrest, driving under the influence of alcohol and driving on a suspended license.
A review of the Ventura County Superior Court website shows that Delarosa-Padilla has prior convictions of driving under the influence of alcohol.
No one was injured as a result of this incident.
