Sacramento Weekly Crime Update: Homicides, DUI Arrests, and Missing Children Search
Published 9 months, 1 week ago
Description
In the past week, several significant incidents occurred throughout Sacramento. On July 8, Eugene Brooks, age 23, turned himself in at the Sacramento County Main Jail and was booked for alleged homicide-related offenses. The investigation remains ongoing. In a separate case, law enforcement made arrests connected to a recent homicide; two juveniles, ages 15 and 16, were taken into custody and booked into Juvenile Hall on charges of alleged robbery and murder. Both cases have been under intense investigation, resulting in swift police action.
A fatal pedestrian accident was reported in the Lawrence Park neighborhood. The incident resulted in the death of a local man, and the circumstances are currently being investigated by authorities to determine liability or potential criminal factors.
A driving under the influence (DUI) checkpoint was scheduled for July 11 between 8 p.m. and 1 a.m. within city limits. These checkpoints are placed based on data regarding DUI arrests and collisions to improve public safety and deter impaired driving. During the most recent checkpoint prior to July 11, officers made five DUI arrests and issued 16 citations for suspended or no driver’s licenses.
In a federal case, Jason Raysean Broadbent, 38, of Sacramento, pleaded guilty to assaulting federal officers with a deadly weapon and possession of methamphetamine. This incident involved gunfire directed at law enforcement and represents a serious escalation in violence against public safety officials. The plea announcement signals the case will soon move to sentencing.
In the wider region, authorities in San Joaquin County reported the arrest of eight individuals in connection to an alleged gang-related kidnapping and torture case. The suspects face a range of charges, and the investigation continues with further details pending.
The Sacramento Police Department is actively seeking assistance in locating two missing children, Athena and Mateo. Authorities report that a 2023 Honda Passport involved in the case crossed into Mexico. Both children have been entered into the Missing and Unidentified Persons System, and officials urge anyone with information to contact the police. Those with information can reach detectives by calling 916-808-0560 or emailing missingpersons@pd.cityofsacramento.org.
At this time, notable trends include a continued focus on impaired driving prevention, ongoing efforts to address violent crime—including homicides with swift arrests—and cooperation with wider law enforcement on multi-jurisdictional cases. Missing children alerts remain a top priority.
Listeners with information regarding any of these incidents are encouraged to contact the Sacramento Police Department tip line at 916-808-0560 or via email. In emergencies, always call 911.
