Man On Psychiatric Hold After Suicidal Standoff

Sonora, CA... On 4/4/15 about 3:45 PM the Reporting Party notified the Tuolumne County Sheriff’s Office that his 30 year old son was armed with a knife and was threatening suicide. Tuolumne County Sheriff’s Office Deputies, Tuolumne County Ambulance, and CalFire Units responded to the address in the 20000 block of Old Buchanan Mine Road. The suicidal subject had doused himself with gasoline and was threatening to cut himself with the knife or light himself on fire. The subject had barricaded himself in a shed. Negotiations went on with the subject for approx.. two hours. The Tuolumne County Sheriff’s Office SWAT Team was called out per Department Policy on Barricaded Subjects. Negotiations continued to no avail. Tuolumne County Sheriff’s SWAT Team Members were able to make entry into the shed and take the subject into custody without injury...





The subject was transported to Sonora Regional Medical Center for a 72 hour Psychiatric Hold.
