Attempted Murder Suspect Arrested
September 20, 2024 – Riverside County Sheriff’s Office officials report that on Friday, September 13, 2024, at 9:58 p.m., deputies from the Norco Sheriff's Station were dispatched to the 1800 block of Hamner Avenue in Norco regarding gunshots fired in the area. Upon arrival, deputies learned a crowd of over 200 people had gathered following a high school football game.
During this gathering, an argument occurred between two groups, and several gunshots were fired by a male suspect. The suspect fled the area prior to the arrival of deputies, and no injuries were reported. Investigators from the Jurupa Valley Sheriff's Station assumed the investigation and identified the suspect as a 17-year-old male juvenile, resident of Jurupa Valley. Search warrants were authored and served; however, the suspect remained outstanding. On Wednesday, September 18, 2024, the suspect arrived at the Jurupa Valley Sheriff's Station and surrendered himself without incident. The juvenile was booked into juvenile hall on multiple counts of attempted murder.
The Riverside County Sheriff’s Office believes there may be additional victims and is seeking the public’s assistance. Anyone with additional information is encouraged to contact Investigator Passalacqua at the Jurupa Valley Sheriff’s Station at (951) 955-2600.
