Illegal Discharge of Firearm with Injury

On 02/06/2013 at approximately 1813 hours, fire/paramedic personnel were dispatched to a report of a subject with a broken leg in the 5000 block of Cliff Drive. When fire/paramedic personnel arrived on scene they determined the victim, identified as Isaias Escobar Flores was suffering from a single gunshot wound to the leg. When Capitola Police Officers arrived on scene and attempted to obtain statements from Flores and an associate he was with, both of them were uncooperative. Both subjects initially refused to cooperate with the police investigation. Flores was flown to an out of county trauma center for treatment of his wounds which are believed to be non life threatening. No arrests have been made and Capitola Police Detectives in conjunction with the Santa Cruz County Gang Task Force are investigating the incident. Anyone with further information regarding the incident are asked to contact the Capitola Police Department.
