Parolees Arrested in Martinez
July 2, 2009Two parolees were arrested early this morning and taken to after ramming a possibly stolen SUV into a police cruiser.
Police were called when neighbors saw two individuals looking into cars. According to the SF Gate,
The driver came to a stop at the dead-end of Pettit and then threw the Nissan into reverse, ramming Roth’s Ford Crown Victoria cruiser, the sergeant said.
The suspects fled on foot but were arrested within the hour with the help of a California Highway Patrol helicopter and a Pleasant Hill police K-9 unit, Roth said.
Christian Dorsch, 40, of Vacaville and April Carruth, 35, of Benicia were taken to Contra Costa Jail in Martinez. The two are currently not eligible for bail as they have parrole holds. When someone on parole is arrested, they are held in a “No Bail” status pending review by their parrole officer.

Bet that parole board is wondering what the heck they were thinking!….Too bad that so many convicts are doomed to repeat bad behavior.

It’s funny in writing the post I could think of all sorts of commentary along those lines. I wonder if they were stupid, on drugs, or what!
