2 Men Held in Stabbing of Teen
Two suspected gang members were arrested on suspicion of stabbing a teenager in Newbury Park over the weekend, Ventura County sheriff’s deputies said Monday.
Shots were reportedly fired in the 1700 block of Calle Diamonte about 11 p.m. Saturday. When deputies arrived, they found a 17-year-old boy had sustained stab wounds. Witnesses said the assailants drove up to a group including the boy and shouted gang slogans before the attack. No one was hit by gunfire.
Deputies from the gang unit on Sunday arrested Franklin Ramos, 23, and his 21-year-old brother, Duglas, of Newbury Park.
The victim was treated at Los Robles Regional Medical Center in Thousand Oaks and released.
The suspects are being held at the East County Jail, Franklin Ramos in lieu of $35,000 bail, and Duglas Ramos in lieu of $20,000 bail.
