Arrest for Battery on an Officer/References to Hells Angels!!

Shaun Nicholas Johnson
of Sonora
 UPDATE:  After reviewing the booking log at Calaveras County Jail, Johnson is apparently a resident of Sonora, which we have now corrected.

   It is also indicated on the booking log that Johnson had outstanding warrants for a variety of other charges such as alleged felony Burglary.

   Thank you Angels Camp Police Department for your actions to protect us.
***********
  On August 10, 2016 at approximately 9:15 PM officers from the Angels Camp Police Department were dispatched to the 1000 block of Tuolumne Avenue.

   A report of a male
subject walking in the area brandishing a baseball bat and challenging people to fight had been reported.

   Upon arrival to the area officers located a man matching the description provided hiding in a carport in the 900 block of Tuolumne Avenue.

   As officers made their approach to the man he discarded the bat inside the carport.

   The man was detained and officers determined that he did not live at the address.

   During the course of the investigation, specific threats were made by the man, including threats to murder the officer's children and family.

    Additionally, while attempting to determine if the homeowner knew the suspect, the suspect was asked to step out of the police vehicle, at which time he spat several times on one of the officers and made reference to the "Red and White" taking are of the officers.

   The "Red and White" is a common street reference to the Hells Angels motorcycle gang, which is well known for the red and white colors on the distinctive gang insignia worn on their clothing and other property.

   Shaun Nicholas Johnson (28) of Sonora, was arrested, transported and booked into the Calaveras County Jail on the following alleged charges

    Penal Code 69, Resisting an Officer
    Penal Code 243(b) Battery on an Officer
    Penal Code 148(a)(1) Resisting/Obstructing an Officer
    Penal Code 647(f) Public Intoxication

   It was later determined, per the ACPD, that the suspect reportedly challenged the reporting party to "come at him", while holding the baseball bat, prior to officers arriving.

   A request was made for the district attorney's office to review the case and consider
filing additional charges related to brandishing a weapon and making criminal threats.

Local scum. Drugs especially meth for people like this is what causes problems. He is probably a good guy when not under the influence. Does the authorities provide counseling or avenues for people to get off the drugs?
