Written by AARON CASTREJON CityWatch Editor SAN DIMAS - The suspect accused of shooting a weapon in a San Dimas neighborhood Sunday evening is scheduled for an April 19 court appearance.
Deputies were originally called to a home in the 300 block of Third Street regarding gunfire around 6 p.m. April 16. Kyle Edward Mueller, 24, surrendered after initially refusing to comply with commands from deputies to give up peacefully. Deputies were able to maintain periodic phone contact with Mueller. During the early part of the barricade, he frequently screamed and yelled at deputies from the safety of his home. After more than four hours, he emerged and was detained. Why Mueller allegedly fired the weapon is under investigation, according to Sgt. Saenz of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s San Dimas Station. A family member was inside the home with Mueller, but left before deputies arrived, Saenz told SGV CityWatch. Onlookers near the crime scene said Mueller’s mother was the one in the home. No one was wounded, Saenz told SGV CityWatch. Mueller was booked April 17 at the Twin Towers Correctional Facility in Los Angeles, according to Los Angeles County booking records. Mueller was booked on suspicion of discharging a weapon in a negligent manner and criminal threats, Saenz told SGV CityWatch. Mueller is also being held due to an unspecified case out of San Bernardino County. He is being held in lieu of $135,000 bail as he awaits an appearance in the Pomona courthouse, according to Los Angeles County booking records. |
