A 22-year-old man from Moreno Valley was arrested on charges of assault with a deadly weapon and criminal threats following a confrontation at a gas station in Moreno Valley.
On Tuesday at 3 p.m., deputies from the sheriff’s Moreno Valley station responded to a report of a man with a gun in the 23900 block of Sunnymead Boulevard, according to Sgt. Joseph Fitzgerald of the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department.
Investigation revealed that the suspect, identified as Nathan Ramirez, had engaged in an unspecified dispute with Dominic Ward, a 35-year-old man from Moreno Valley.
