Narrative:
 
 
A Santa Paula man was arrested for attempted murder after stabbing another man on 2/17/2021.
 
On 2/17/2021, deputies from the Sheriff’s Fillmore Patrol Station responded to a call of a stabbing victim in the 14000 block of Foothill Road, in the unincorporated area near Santa Paula.  Upon their arrival, deputies located a 31-year-old male victim suffering from multiple stab wounds.   The victim was transported via ambulance to a local hospital where he remains in stable condition.
 
Investigators from the Sheriff’s Major Crimes Bureau and Gang Unit responded to assist with the investigation.  They determined that (S) Guy Olvera stabbed the victim several times over what is believed to be an ongoing dispute between the two men.  Additional evidence revealed that Olvera fled the scene in a vehicle that was associated with an address in the 500 Block of 13th Street in Santa Paula.  Later in the night, Olvera was contacted at the Santa Paula address when he arrived alone in the suspect vehicle.  He was taken into custody without incident. 
 
Olvera was booked at the Pre-Trial Detention Facility for one count of PC 664/187(a) - Attempted Murder.  He remains in custody on $515,000.00 bail and is scheduled to appear in Ventura County Superior Court on 2/19/2021.
 
Investigators are seeking additional witnesses or information pertaining to the crime. If anyone has information, please contact Detective Douglas at 805-384-4732.
