KFBK - A Stockton mom showed just how amazing mothers can be, and it was just a coincidence that it happened to be on Mother's Day.
A woman had just returned home from shopping on Mother's Day on the 3100 block of Stefano Way in Stockton when two suspects approached her and tried stealing her shopping bag.
After she resisted, one of the men ripped off a gold chain from around her neck. Stockton Police Officer Joe Silva says that's when the woman's elderly mother came running out. "At that point, the victims elderly mother saw what happened and chased after the suspect, yelling for help."
When the two black males got into their white four-door car, one fired a gun into the air then both fled the scene.
Officer Silva says "This is probably not how this family planned on spending Mother's Day, but we all got to remember that all moms, doesn't matter how old they are, always have that instinct in them, that when they see something happen to one of their children, they're gonna go out and protect them."
The men got away but no one was hurt during the incident. If anyone has any information on this robbery, you're asked to call the Stockton Police Department.
KFBK - A man in Stockton was shot and killed after apparently confronting officers with a bayonet.
A man in Stockton was shot and killed after apparently confronting officers with a bayonet.
The incident began Saturday night when Stockton Police officers responded to a domestic violence call to a house on the 1500 block of Carpenter Road. That's when officers heard a woman screaming.
"So our officers had to go inside the house, once we got inside the suspect saw us and drug the female into a back room and we had to force entry," Stockton Police Officer Joe Silva said.
Silva says officers then detained 45-year-old parolee Donald Haynes. However, he fought with officers and managed to escape.
On Sunday morning, officers following up the incident saw Haynes in a vehicle, and that's when Silva says he came out with a 19.5-inch long bayonet. "Our officers are saying, "Drop the bayonet, drop the bayonet,' and the suspect did not. He continued to walk toward the officer, so the officer had to fire his weapon," Silva said.
Haynes was shot once and died of his injury at a local hospital. No officers were injured in the incident.
