On Sunday June 8, 2025, at approximately 2100 hrs., officers were dispatched to the 3800 block of S. Staples St. in reference to a major vehicle accident involving a pedestrian.

When officers arrived, CCFD was administering CPR to a 69-year-old male. The male was transported to a local hospital where he later succumbed to his injuries.

It was determined that the male was trying to cross the roadway, not at an intersection or crosswalk, when he was struck by an oncoming vehicle. The driver of the vehicle stayed on scene after the accident and immediately called for emergency services.

No foul play is suspected.

UPDATE: Patrick Potter (63) was ultimately arrested and taken to the City Detention Center for booking.

On June 4, 2025 at approximately 3:56 pm, officers were dispatched to the 4200 block of Western Dr. in reference to a disturbance in progress. The call came in as an open-line disturbance between a male and a female.

Officers arrived and observed the male suspect, who quickly shut the front door, and a female standing in the front yard with apparent minor injuries. A perimeter was set, and SWAT, HNT, and the Drone Unit were called to the scene.

A while later, HNT contacted a male in his 60s from inside the residence. The male eventually released an elderly female. A short time later, the male suspect surrendered and was taken into custody without issue.

All parties were checked by medics on scene. The male was transported to a local hospital for evaluation due to injuries acquired during the initial disturbance.

The male is facing charges for Burglary with the Intent to Commit a Felony.
