[UPDATE Sunday] Bleeding Victim Fleeing on Foot Through Rio Dell as Officers Search

A violent confrontation appears to have happened on Wildwood Avenue in Rio Dell around 10:30 p.m.

According to traffic on the scanner, around that time a Rio Dell Police officer began searching for a stabbing victim in the 200 to 300 blocks of Wildwood Avenue. [The person was later determined not to have been stabbed.]

The victim had fled bleeding profusely, according to the officer speaking over the radio.

“Subject possibly bleeding out,” the officer said. “I need help.”

He also said that a suspect in the stabbing was detained and the suspect had a small cut on his hand.

The officer eventually noted that he was searching a yard in the 300 block of Wildwood. “There’s a lot of blood here,” he said.

But as of 10:56 p.m., the several law enforcement officers were searching a couple of blocks from there.

Note: At different times the officer referred to the person being sought as a victim and later as a suspect.

Please remember that information gathered from initial reports is subject to revision as more facts become available.

UPDATE 11:06 p.m.: Just a few minutes, the officer described the fleeing man as wearing all black and with a laceration on his arm. “Both arms covered in blood,” the officer said.

UPDATE 11:08 p.m.: A person in the area provided the following photo:

We need to see Hillary Clintons E mails, plus the 600 she deleted before the law got to her, also the magic pizza children pedophile case, along with convicted child rapist who runs Lolita Island for all the gov. sex control crowd.

“Convicted child rapist”!!??

Oh, you must mean Dennis Hastert, the longest serving Republican Speaker of the House in American history. Dennis Hastert is a child rapist who was convicted. Then of course there’s that Republican judge/child rapist Roy Moore, Donald Trump’s failed candidate.
