On Wednesday, March 2, 2016 at approximately 9:20 pm, an Antioch Police Department Patrol Officer conducted a traffic stop on 41 year old Deon Culberson for a traffic violation. Culberson was found to be in possession of a loaded and concealed firearm. Culberson was determined to be a previously convicted felon and was therefore prohibited from owning and or possessing a firearm. He was arrested and sent to the Martinez County Detention Facility.
Then, on Thursday, March 17, 2016 at approximately 10:00 am, an Antioch Police Department Patrol Officer attempted to conduct a traffic stop on Culberson for traffic violations in the area of Lone Tree Way and Hillcrest Avenue. Culberson fled in his vehicle and led the officer on a vehicle pursuit through a residential neighborhood. Culberson jumped out of his vehicle on a residential street and led the officer on a foot pursuit. The officer quickly caught up with Culberson and attempted to take him into custody. Culberson fought with the officer, but was subdued and taken into custody. Culberson was arrested for the vehicle pursuit.
The Antioch Police Department Special Operations Unit obtained a search warrant for Culberson’s home and his vehicles. The detectives served the search warrant at Culberson’s house on Dali Court in the City of Oakley. The detectives located a large amount of cocaine and methamphetamine, as well as a large amount of cash and ammunition for various caliber firearms. The detectives also located evidence that the drugs were possessed for the purpose of sales. At 2:00 p.m. Culberson was again sent to the Martinez County Detention Facility.
The investigation is ongoing. Anyone with information regarding this case is encouraged to call Detective Brogdon with the Antioch Police Department at (925) 779-6895.
