NOTE: Additional photographs of 33-year-old Ramon Valdes Carrasco (below) have been superimposed to show what he may look like wearing a surgical mask.
Ramon Valdes Carrasco is still believed to be in and around the city of Greenfield. Information continues to come into the Monterey County Sheriff’s Office but there has been a delay in receiving the information from the public resulting in him being able to elude law enforcement. Our office continues to ask the community to be vigilant and report any sighting of Carrasco IMMEDIATELY by calling 9-1-1.
Carrasco is wanted in relation to a shooting that occurred at a homeless encampment in the agricultural fields just south of Elm Avenue and 4th Street on Sunday February 9th, 2025. A victim was located and found to be suffering from non-life-threatening wounds. 15 minutes later, a second call was received from a victim reporting that a subject had brandished a firearm at them in the area of Elm Avenue and 4th Street. That victim also reported a second victim of a gunshot wound. A second person suffering from a non-life-threatening gunshot wound was found in the agricultural fields south of Elm Avenue and 3rd Street. Both victims were transported to a trauma center for treatment of their injuries.
33-year-old Ramon Valdes Carrasco is described as 5-06, 150 pounds with black hair, green eyes and facial hair. He is believed to be unhoused and frequents the Greenfield area. Some tips have come in stating that he has been seen wearing a surgical style mask to conceal his face.
If you know where Ramon Valdes Carrasco is or if you see him, call 9-1-1 immediately. Do not approach him as he is considered to be Armed and Dangerous.
Anyone with additional information or video surveillance related to this incident, is asked to contact the Monterey County Sheriff’s Office Detective Sergeant Nicholas Kennedy at 831-597-1228 or Detective Arras Wilson at 831-597-1225. Information can be provided anonymously to our detectives or to 9-1-1.
