Pierpont area: Ventura PD look for suspects in two violent crimes

On December 6th, two serious and very violent crimes were committed in the Pierpont Blvd area of Ventura. The first incident occurred at approximately 3:40am in the morning near the intersection of Pierpont Blvd and Dover Lane. During that incident, the victim, a 22 year old Ventura resident, was walking with two friends,  on Pierpont Blvd. Two suspects pulled up to the three pedestrians and challenged them, making statements about “our neighborhood”. The suspects exited their white Nissan Frontier pickup and the driver and victim began to fight. While they were fighting, the passenger pulled out a handgun and fired two rounds towards the victim. The victim sustained a gunshot wound to the lower leg. The suspects then fled the area. They were described as white males in their 20’s or 30’s. The suspects have not been identified. If anybody has information about the suspects in this crime, they are encouraged to contact Sgt. Ryan Weeks at 805 339-4309.

The second incident occurred at approximately 11pm, also on the evening of December 6th in the parking lot of Surf Liquor at the intersection of Pierpont Blvd and Seaward Ave. The suspect, Kai Castillo, confronted the victim and immediately began battering him. Castillo also yelled out Pierpont gang slogans.  As Castillo battered the first victim, two bystanders, a 45 year old male and a 51 year old female, attempted to intervene because they felt sorry for the victim, whom they did not know. As they attempted to intervene, Castillo punched the 45-year-old male in the face, knocking him to the ground. At the same time, a female suspect, who was apparently with Castillo, kicked the 51-year-old female in the face, knocking several of her teeth out. During the attack, one of the suspects took cash and a credit card from the 45 year old male victim after he was knocked to the ground.

On December 30th the Ventura Police Department Major Crimes Investigations Unit served a search warrant at the residence of Kai Castillo in the Pierpont area in an attempt to gather more information about the attack and the possible identity of the female suspect. The female was described as a very tall white female with blonde hair. Kai Castillo currently has a warrant for his arrest for the crime of battery along with a gang enhancement. If anybody has information about this crime, the whereabouts of Kai Castillo, or the identity of the female, they are encouraged to contact Sgt. Ryan Weeks at 805 339-4309.
