O.C. sheriff’s deputy is stabbed as she performs homeless outreach; manhunt underway

Officials are searched for a transient man suspected of stabbing an Orange County sheriff’s deputy while she was conducting routine homeless outreach in San Clemente on Tuesday afternoon.

The incident took place around 2:15 p.m. near the 1700 block of Avenida Estacion, according to the Sheriff’s Department. The deputy suffered a non-life-threatening 1-inch laceration to her neck, was transported to a hospital and later released, department spokesperson Matthew Parrish said.

“All of our deputies are trained in the different resources available to homeless people,” Parrish said. “When they are out there doing their patrols, we encourage them to talk to homeless people, see if they are aware of these services and if they are able to connect them to help.”

The department is seeking the public’s help in finding the suspect, who is described as a white man in his mid-30s with brown hair, blue eyes and a beard, about 5 feet 10 inches tall and weighing 160 pounds. He is a known transient in the area and was last seen wearing a black jacket and dark pants and running toward the storm drain near Avenida Pico and El Camino Real, according to the department.

“If you see the suspect, do not approach him and call 9-1-1,” the department said in a post on X. “Thank you to the community for your assistance and patience during this incident.”

This will keep happening until the long-term homeless are locked up in detox or mental institutions.

Also notice how the perp's race is only mentioned when he is white.

Sympathy for the deputy but not the city and state that allow these encampments.

Stop with the “homeless” BS. Drunks, drug addicts, and the insane need to be removed from the cities and triaged at a safe location. Detoxed and given medical and mental treatment.
If you relapse into drug madness and violence, you get removed from society into an asylum.

What is a transient man? Just male for a short time, but usually female?

STOP PAMPERING THESE PEOPLE.

THEY ARE DELIBERATE IN THEIR HOMELESS ACTIONS-—USUALLY TIED TO DRUGS.

TELLING YOUNG PEOPLE TO CARRY NARCAN WHEN OUT WITH THEIR FRIENDS IS STUPID.

MORE IMPORTANT FOR THEM TO CHOOSE THEIR COMPANY MORE WISELY.

So the officials are suspected of hiding the stabber somewhere on their persons?

Correctamundo! Include ex-cons who are completely gaming the system...the ones who know where and when all the free food is served.

It's going to take a leader with STONES to "solve", or at least correctly address this problem!
