Busy Halloween Weekend for Elk Grove Police

For the three days leading up to Halloween, Elk Grove Police were dealing with more than just your usual assortments of ghost and goblins. Among the usual arrest for drunk driving, public intoxication, shoplifting and domestic violence, police also arrested a juvenile for possession of brass knuckles and two others for an attempted armed robbery of an area gas station.

For the three days ending last night, Elk Grove Police made eight narcotics arrests, six DUI arrests, two for public intoxication and two arrests for domestic violence.

In the case of the brass knuckles, police arrested the 16-year-old male juvenile suspect following a stop for a bicycle code violation on Saturday night. The juvenile was found to be in possession of the brass knuckles and have an outstanding warrant for his arrest.

Police also arrested 25-year-old Anthony Ramos and 25-year-old Amy Thai, both of Sacramento, early Sunday morning after an attempted armed robbery of the Chevron gas station located on Sheldon Road. After responding officers located the suspects and they were identified by the victim, both were arrested and transferred to the county jail.

All of this and there was no full moon for Halloween.
