From the Office of the Sheriff:
At about 10:02 this morning, Bay Station Deputy Sheriffs were dispatched to a ‘medical-police’ call near Market Avenue and 6th Street in North Richmond. The caller reported that there was a person on the sidewalk who was bleeding.
Deputies located the person and provided first aid and CPR. The fire department arrived shortly after to continue life-saving measures. The person was later pronounced deceased at the scene. The person is not being identified at this time.
During the initial investigation, deputies identified a suspect who was later taken into custody by Sheriff’s Office detectives. The suspect was later booked into the Martinez Detention Facility for murder. She is identified as 61-year-old Terri James of Richmond. She is being held in lieu of $1 million bail.
The investigation is ongoing. Anyone with any information on this incident is asked to contact the Investigation Division at (925) 313-2600. For any tips, email: tips@so.cccounty.us or call (866) 846-3592 to leave an anonymous voice message.
Although the N. Richmond community is much better than back in the day, it’s still not a pleasure cruise.
