    Oxnard | Vehicle Pursuit, Suspect Arrested

    Oxnard Police Department – Incident Press Release 

    On March 1, 2021 at approximately 4:45 P.M., officers from the Oxnard Police Department Special Enforcement Unit attempted to conduct a traffic stop on a vehicle in the area of Oxnard Boulevard and Wagon Wheel Road. The vehicle failed to yield and a vehicle pursuit was initiated. The vehicle fled into the Riverpark Neighborhood and through parts of The Collection before entering the N/B 101 freeway. Officers lost sight of the vehicle and the pursuit was terminated. Prior to the termination of the pursuit, officers were able to identify the driver as 36-year-old Oxnard resident Brandon Guerra. A warrant was later issued for his arrest.

    On March 5, 2021, investigators from the Oxnard Police Department Violent Crimes Unit, members of the Special Enforcement Unit and K-9 Unit, located Guerra in the 800 block of Cedar Court. Officers attempted to contact Guerra however, he fled on foot. Guerra was captured a short distance away and resisted the officer’s attempt to apprehend him. After a brief struggle, Guerra was taken into custody. He was found to be in possession of a collapsible baton. Guerra, who is a Post Release Offender, was arrested for his outstanding warrant, resisting arrest, and possession of a baton.

    The Post Release Offender Program was created by Assembly Bill 109 – the 2011 Public Safety Realignment – effective October 1, 2011.  This program mandates individuals sentenced to non-violent, non-serious (irrespective of priors) or non-sex offenses will serve their sentences in county jails instead of state prison. The public should be aware that release under AB 109 is based on the offender’s most recent committing offense. Prior convictions are not considered.
