Domestic Violence

Location:  3300 Block of Cabrillo Avenue

At approximately 1049 hours, a reporting party contacted Public Safety Dispatchers from out of state. The reporting party said her friend texted her that she had been beaten and strangled by her boyfriend at their home on the 3300 block of Cabrillo Avenue. The male suspect threatened to kill his girlfriend if she tried to contact law enforcement.

A Records check of the male suspect revealed he had an outstanding felony warrant out of Sunnyvale.

Officers were dispatched to the residence. The victim came out of the residence and told officers the suspect was asleep, a juvenile remained in the apartment and the suspect owned firearms. Officers established a containment perimeter around the residence. The suspect came out on the third floor balcony and asked what was going on. Officers yelled to the suspect to exit the building and surrender, but he retreated back into his apartment.  After a brief delay, the suspect emerged again and said he was going to come down and surrender.  The suspect exited the building without incident.

An air rifle and replica handgun were recovered at the scene along with some narcotics and drug paraphernalia. The suspect was arrested and transported to the Santa Clara County Jail.

NOTE:            Domestic violence and abuse can happen to anyone, yet the problem is often overlooked, excused or denied. This is especially true when the abuse is psychological, rather than physical.

There are many signs of an abusive relationship. The most telling sign is fear of your partner. If you feel like you have to walk on eggshells around your partner—constantly watching what you say and do in order to avoid a blow-up—chances are your relationship is unhealthy and abusive. If you are in danger, please call 9-1-1 immediately. Other signs that you may be in an abusive relationship include a partner who belittles you or tries to control you and feelings of self-loathing, helplessness and desperation. No one should live in fear of the person they love.

Domestic violence is everyone’s business. If you know someone who you think is being abused (e.g. friend, family member, co-worker, client, patient, parishioner, etc.) refer them to the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-7233.

                         If you are in danger, please call 9-1-1 immediately.
