Yahoo!A 21-year-old was stabbed in the chest during a gang fight Tuesday, August 18, and a week later authorities are still on the lookout for the suspect.
Sheriff’s deputies received a call just before 7:30 p.m. reporting a fight involving up to 10 subjects at Walnut Lane near Ella Lane—in unincorporated County area near Hollister Avenue, between Patterson and Turnpike. Deputies arrived to find the male victim, who was transported to the hospital and treated for non-life threatening injuries, according to Sheriff’s Department spokesman Drew Sugars.
Later in the evening, a sergeant pulled over a vehicle at Cathedral Oaks and Camino del Remedio matching the description of a vehicle seen driving away from the scene of the fight. A search of the SUV uncovered a knife, and authorities believe the male passenger, 21-year-old Ismael Torres, was involved in the fight, though they don’t believe he stabbed the victim. Authorities are still trying to determine if the recovered knife was used in the stabbing.
Torres was arrested for probation violation and felony child endangerment. The female driver, 18-year-old Tania Jimenez, was arrested for being an accessory after the fact and child endangerment. The couple’s one-year-old was released to a family member.

Illegal immigration and sanctuary city policies, Noletaman. When will it stop? When your child is injured? When your parents are robbed? For an eye-opening book check out "Mexifornia" by Victor Davis Hanson. You'll learn more than you want to know...

Flat out racism is not the answer BRIMO. Often Illegal aliens are gangbanging on Mexican-American kids. Or maybe they're all banging together but that is one of the messages in Hanson's book. "Mexifornia" is one of the most insightful books written about the state I grew up in. And the (disturbing) changes it's seen.

The poorest and most desperate come from Mexico as well as the criminal. Parents don´t raise their kids right and do things that would be frowned upon in Mexico. Some of the gangbangers are citizens, children of illegals. Perhaps if the parents were held accountable, they´d raise their kids better.

I'm sure, just becuase the majority of our local gangbangers are Mexican doesn't mean their airn't white or even black gang mambers. To be honest with you for the most part these so called gangster are good kids they just don't get the attention they need at home. I mean at least we're not like all these white kids growing up, shooting up our schools. It's the white kids who get all cracked out and do sick things in the world. You all talk bad about the mexicans but where would the white people be without them? Picking your own food, making your own food and all with no respect.
