Deputies Arrest Sacramento Man – Seize Large Weapons Cache
November 18
Sacramento, CA
Last week, the Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office Threat Management Unit, with assistance from the Sheriff’s Office Special Enforcement Detail (SED), Critical Incident Negotiations Team (CINT), and multiple other specialized tactical units, executed a search warrant on 29-year-old Dalmin Muran following an ongoing investigation into concerning and escalating behavior.
The investigation began after Muran was repeatedly observed engaging in suspicious activity at local schools in East Sacramento County, including Rosemont High School.
In one instance, Muran drove his vehicle onto school grounds during night time hours and was seen wearing military-style clothing and night-vision optics.
He complied when contacted by security, who told him he had to leave, despite insisting he should be allowed access since the schools are “public grounds.”
Muran claimed to have prior military service during other contacts, although it was determined he never had. Muran also expressed interest in joining law enforcement.
During the execution of the search warrant, deputies recovered multiple law enforcement patches and tactical gear, including those from the Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office.
They also discovered numerous firearms that had been modified from their original California-compliant configuration.
One unserialized short-barreled rifle (referred to as a “ghost gun”) was also located hidden in the attic as the warrant was being served, along with hundreds of firearm parts and components used to build or alter weapons.
Deputies also found multiple smoke grenades, flash bangs, and pepper spray deployable smoke grenades within the residence, further contributing to public safety concerns and the seriousness of the investigation.
Muran was booked into custody at the Sacramento County Main Jail for multiple felony charges, but was released on bond hours later.
Detectives are concerned that there may be unreported incidents in which Muran represented himself as law enforcement and/or attempted to enforce laws.
The Sheriff’s Office urges anyone who may have had suspicious contact with Muran, particularly instances in which he represented himself as law enforcement or attempted to enforce laws, to contact the Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office Threat Management Unit immediately through our non-emergency line at (916) 874-5115 for follow-up. The investigation remains ongoing.
