APPLE VALLEY – A 32-year-old Lucerne Valley man sustained major injuries after being beaten and stabbed by his girlfriend’s family on Friday night.
On Friday, June 8, 2018, at around 9:30 p.m. deputies responded to the report of an assault in the 32500 block of Powerline Road in Lucerne Valley. When they arrived they found the victim suffering from head trauma, trauma to his body, and a stab wound to the abdomen.

The two got into an argument on Friday evening and he told her and her children to leave the home.

Jose Rodriguez, 74, Jose Zamora, 18, Blanca Ash, 33, and a 17-year-old male, all of Apple Valley, went to the victim’s home and forced their way into his sliding door. They then beat the victim with a baseball bat and the juvenile stabbed the victim in the abdomen. The foursome fled following the attack, leaving the injured victim prior to the deputies arrival. The suspects were later arrested at their Tutelo Road home where the bat and the knife were recovered. The victim was airlifted to a trauma center for treatment of his injuries.
