SUMMARY:
On June 1, 2019, at approximately 7:41 pm, Morongo Station deputies responded to the 57000 block of Castro Rd in the Town of Yucca Valley, following the reports of a fight.

Lucas believed she was cheating on him with Loren. Lucas proceeded to assault Loren, causing great bodily injury. Lucas fled the scene and was located at a residence in the 8200 block of Kickapoo Trail in Yucca Valley. Lucas barricaded himself inside the residence and refused to come outside.
