On Saturday, November 26^th around 6:30PM a Deputy was unloading gear from their patrol vehicle near the Kentfield Substation. A male subject, later identified as Angel Hernandez Gutierrez, approached the Deputy unloading their gear while holding a shiny object. The object, later determined to be a large kitchen knife, was concealed on Gutierrez’s body as he proceeded to tell the Deputy he wanted to kill them.

After making the statements to the Deputy, Gutierrez attempted to leave the area and discard the knife by throwing it up in the air. The Deputy asked for additional Deputies to assist in the apprehension of Gutierrez.  Gutierrez was taken into custody a short distance away without incident and the knife was recovered.

Gutierrez was booked into the Marin county Jail on the following charges:

422 PC – Criminal Threats

245 (c) PC – Assault with a deadly weapon likely to cause great bodily injury

69 PC – Obstructing

Gutierrez remains in custody and is being held on $50,000 bail.
