Camarillo Police Station responded to an agricultural field in the 5000 block of Los Angeles Avenue, in Somis, in reference to a call of a stabbing. When deputies arrived at the scene, they found a male subject suffering from multiple stab wounds. The victim was immediately transported to a local hospital, where he underwent surgery. Investigators from the Sheriff’s Major Crimes Bureau responded to investigate the incident.
Prior to the arrival of deputies at the scene, the suspect, who was later identified as Samuel Adolfo, had fled the scene. The immediate area was searched, but Adolfo was not located.
Investigators from the Sheriff’s Major Crimes Bureau and the Camarillo Station’s Special Enforcement Unit collectively worked together to locate Adolfo.
