More details on attempted murder suspect Jalissa Montanez including almost striking a deputy

After my initial post, I contacted HCSO and got the following details from Scott Aponte.



"On Thursday, September 26, deputies were dispatched to the Herrick Ave. Park and Ride in Eureka when passersby reported a possible robbery and kidnapping in progress. Callers reported a female had jumped out of a vehicle and screamed she was being robbed.

A deputy located a male in the area who identified himself as the boyfriend of the female subject. The male reported he had gotten into an argument at the Park and Ride with the female after he suspected she had stolen items from him. The female drove off from the scene.

A deputy contacted the female, identified as 21 year-old Jalissa Seven Montanez of Fremont, Calif., via telephone to determine if she was safe. While speaking with Montanez, deputies observed a vehicle approaching at a high rate of speed heading directly for their patrol vehicle. The vehicle narrowly missed striking a deputy and the patrol vehicle when the driver made no attempt to change direction. The deputy was able to get out of the way before being struck by the vehicle.

Deputies chased after the vehicle, which stopped on the 500 block of Herrick Ave. After a short struggle, deputies arrested the driver, who was identified as Montanez. Upon further investigation, it was determined the vehicle had been reported stolen to the University of California Berkeley Police Department on September 25.

Montanez was arrested on suspicion of the following crimes:

PC 664/187 - Attempted Murder

PC 245(a)(1) - Assault with a Deadly Weapon

PC 148(a)(1) - Resisting Arrest

PC 496d(a) - Possession of a Stolen Vehicle

VC 2800.1 - Evading a Peace Officer

VC 23152(a) - Driving Under the Influence

VC 14601.1(a) - Driving on a Suspended Driver License

VC 23123(a) - Talking on a Cell Phone While Driving

Neither Montanez, nor responding deputies were injured during the incident."
