GREENFIELD — Greenfield Police Department announced Tuesday that detectives have arrested the suspect involved in a 2017 stabbing that left one woman in critical condition.
After a 20-month-long investigation, detectives from Greenfield and the Yuba City Police Department traveled to Yuba City, Calif., where they found Agustin Cabrera Serrano, 30, who was arrested Aug. 10 on charges of attempted homicide, corporal injury to a cohabitant and criminal threats.
Serrano was the suspect in a Jan. 20, 2017, incident in the 400 block of 10th Street in Greenfield. At about 8:40 a.m., Greenfield police responded to an emergency call for a female victim who was stabbed 22 times and suffering from an incised cut to the throat.
The approximate 50-year-old victim was taken to Natividad Medical Center in Salinas in critical condition, where she underwent surgery and ultimately survived the stabbing.
“Detectives from the Greenfield Police Department conducted an investigation into the attempted homicide and developed a suspect in the case,” police said in a news release Tuesday.
An arrest warrant was issued for Serrano, then 28, who had fled the area in a gold 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The Jeep was later recovered by Yuba City police on Jan. 22, 2017.
Last Friday Serrano was taken to Sutter County Jail, where he is pending extradition to Monterey County. He is being held on a $1,250,000 bond.
