Napa police are reporting the arrest on Locust Street of a 42-year-old Napa man with the same surname as that of a stabbing victim found in the same block Wednesday afternoon.
According to an arrest summary from the City of Napa Police Department, a call came in shortly after 3 p.m. to report an intoxicated person with ammunition in the 2100 block of Locust:
The person reporting this incident identified the subject as Miguel Anguiano (42 yrs. of Napa).
Officers arrived and saw Anguiano place something behind some shrubs at this location.
An Officer checked this area and located a speed loader with ammunition. A speed loader is used to rapidly load ammunition into a revolver handgun.
Anguiano is prohibited from possessing ammunition based on past criminal convictions. Aguiano is also on probation.
He was arrested and booked at the Napa County Department of Corrections on suspicion of being a felon in possession of ammunition and violating probation, police said.
Anguiano's arrest came just over 24 hours after police and firefighters responded to a stabbing victim in the same block of Locust Street.
According to a police announcement issued Thursday afternoon,
On January 2, 2013 at 1431hrs. the Napa Police Department and the Napa Fire Department responded to the report of a stabbing in the 2100 block of Locust Street. Officers located the victim, Christopher Anguiano seated in a seat in the garage. He was bleeding from a stab wound to his chest area. Anguiano was not cooperative and refused to provide any details regarding the incident or where the incident took place.
Family members at the scene reported that a black vehicle had dropped Anguiano off at their residence and that he had walked to the house. It is unknown the motive for this fight.
It is believed that the incident may have occurred in the Imola Ave area near Gasser Drive. A citizen had reported seeing a fight between two male subjects in this area about one hour before Anguiano arrived on Locust. One of the responsibles left in a vehicle and the other left on foot.
