SANTA ROSA, CA — A Sonoma County man was recently arrested for allegedly firing at another man he’d had an argument with at his apartment complex.
According to a press release by the Santa Rosa Police Department, officers responded in the morning of Sunday, July 6, to the 2000 block of Pioneer Way to investigate a report of a gunshot.
Officers learned that two individuals had gotten into an argument that escalated into one allegedly firing a shot at the other.
Responding officers located the suspect and reportedly identified him as Cesar Pacheco, 38, of Santa Rosa.
