On 10/30/20, Moorpark Police Department patrol units were dispatched to 275 W. Los Angeles Avenue reference a subject whose throat had been slit. Upon arrival, deputies learned the victim had been having a conversation with a female acquaintance when Joseph Oliveira approached him and without provocation, used an unknown object to cut a portion of the victim’s neck. Oliveira also made a stabbing motion at the victim, which caused an additional injury to his upper extremities. Oliveira fled the area prior to the deputies’ arrival. The victim was transported to a local hospital for medical treatment.
